Chapter Twenty-Three: Night Attack on Tengyun Ridge

"Three masters, I, Zhao Dequan, will toast you again," this guy named Zhao Dequan staggered to Niu Heizi with a sea bowl, drank half a bowl, picked up the pig's trotters and gnawed it.

"Well, let's talk about it today...... Let's not talk about it, do this..bowl. Ushikuroko's tongue is a little big, and he has been drinking it since last night, but he still picks up the big bowl and drinks it all.

"Three masters, this... This... In this village, I admire you the most .......... and the most. A minion named Li Cannon also raised his glass and crawled over flatteringly.

Niu San's master laughed: "Wolves travel thousands of miles to eat meat, and dogs travel thousands of miles to eat." He smacked his lips contemptuously, remembering the prudence of the big boss last night, and continued: "Otherwise, tomorrow I will send a few "short-cut lanterns" (referring to gouging out eyes and cutting tongues) to that little white face. ”

The woman who was waiting next to her trembled when she heard this, and in order to prevent escape and make it easier to do things, Niu Heizi stripped the robbed woman of all her clothes. Seeing the frightened appearance of the women, Niu Kuroko laughed lewdly, and the pain of others brought him inexplicable happiness.

The group next to him immediately laughed in unison. Everyone was trembling with laughter, when suddenly they heard the sound of cannons from the south.

Wu Zhenxiang, and then Wu Zhenyue also rushed out with his clothes. The three masters looked at each other, and their faces were all expressions of indescribable horror.

The sound just now came from the Mingtian Stream, which was the third checkpoint leading to the village from the south. Soon, the sound died down, followed by gunfire at the final level.

A little minion who was spurting blood all over his body broke into the village, "Big boss, official...... The soldier had already called," and fell to the ground.

There is no need to be reminded, the sound of bullets whizzing can already be heard. As soon as a few minions got up the wall, they fell down one by one with a scream. Niu San pulled out his gun and wanted to resist, but suddenly heard a terrifying "click" sound from the rock wall in the north, and several bandits who were still scurrying around were beaten to pieces.

The first to seize the highest point was Huang Zhengyi's machine gun platoon, he personally commanded the heavy machine gun mounted on the stone wall to fire fiercely into the village, and soon, the north also took a breakthrough, with the collapse of the walled gate, the soldiers picked up their bayonet rifles and began the final charge.

Niu San's family had just changed into a tattered piece of clothes, and slipped towards the back door with a rolling belt. Suddenly felt a pain in his waist, and fell to the ground, he struggled to turn his head and scolded hatefully: "Zhao Dequan! Lee Cannon! Lao Tzu ****. ”

The battle ended quickly, the little minions honestly squatted down one by one with their heads facing the wall, the three masters were tied to a thick wooden stick, and the peasants of Qin Shangling killed the pigs for the New Year. And one more? Most of the body of the second master, Wu Zhenyue, was dragged aside, and there was a thigh that didn't know where to fly. The soldiers of the security regiment had already completed the formation, and although it was impossible to encounter another surprise attack, Xu Ming still ordered the sentry post and the alert troops.

Xu Ming was a little dissatisfied, because he found that the chicken legs in Tengyunzhai were better than those in the barracks. He wiped his mouth and said to the guard Xiao Liu: "Go back and talk to Lao Kong, why the chicken legs here are so delicious." Tell him to learn! ”

Xiao Liu agreed with a smile. At this time, Qin Lieping and Chen Huizhi also walked in, Xu Ming saw it, and greeted: "Hurry up and taste the chicken thighs here, the taste is really good, if we retire in the future, we will burn and sell them in the big city according to this recipe!" I've thought of a name, it's called Qiyang Bandit Chicken! ”

Everyone laughed, but Xu Ming was unhappy, this operation was surprisingly smooth, the people and horses in three directions had already met, and there were still 420 pairs of 840 soldiers who went up the mountain, and only two were injured all the way in the direction of the Niangniang platoon.

Not only that, but there are quite a few seizures. Xu Ming didn't feel like taking down a cottage, but taking down the dragon's lair in the Western world. The gold and silver treasures have not been counted for more than 2 hours, and there are still some calligraphy and paintings, I really don't understand, do these bandits have this level of appreciation?

In addition, there are hundreds of loads of opium and chips, all of which are fine cloud soil (Yunnan tobacco soil), Xu Ming waved his hand, "Burn them all, and then pour them into the ravine." ”

Qin Lieping walked over and whispered to Xu Ming: "Commander Xu, these clouds and soil are very valuable, or ......."

Xu Ming waved his hand dissatisfiedly, "No matter how valuable it is, it's not the Chinese people who are poisoned, and it's a disaster to keep it anyway." ”

Qin Lieping and Chen Huizhi have no choice, everyone can say the truth, but it is still a pity to really see the destruction of tens of thousands of oceans of tobacco and soil. If you want to blame, you can only blame Xu Ming, the rich man is too rich.

After a long time, the statistical results finally came out, "Our army was injured two people in this operation: one fell into a trap and was injured, and one fell into a ravine and was injured in the leg. The bandits killed 34 people, the remaining 131 were captured. After investigation, all the bandits in the cottage have been cleared, and none of them have escaped. All but one of the hostages were rescued. ”

"84,526 yuan was seized. There are 37 large yellow croakers for gold bars, 3 small yellow croaker, and ...... gold and silver jewelry. ”

Xu Ming and the others were overjoyed when they heard this, this time they made a fortune, Qin Lieping was well-informed, according to his estimates, all of them were converted into at least 150,000 oceans.

"The wolf smoke rises and the mountains look north,"

"The dragon rises and rolls the horse, and the sword qi is like frost."

"The heart is like the water of the Yellow River"

"Who can fight in twenty years."

……

This is Xu Ming's lyrics, Yuming's latest interpretation of the song "Loyal to the Country", this song is currently extremely popular in China, and the spirit of resisting the enemy and humiliating it is in line with this era. It is said that even the old man Jiang Guangtou would hum a few words: "Dignified China wants to let the Quartet come to congratulate." ”

Xu Ming secretly accompanied Tu Honggang in his heart, but he still sang with the soldiers. Behind the team, there is a roaring Tengyun Village.

County Magistrate Liu is organizing the people to greet in Wulong Pavilion, and the couplet has been written, the left link: the god marching soldiers descended from the sky to break the cloud village, and the right link: protect the homeland and defend the people of Li and stabilize Qiyang City. In addition, it is necessary to arrange for the labor army, and last time the committee members from the province brought a few people to eat all the chickens in the village, but now there are not enough chickens and ducks to make up. There are also squires and celebrities to congratulate the welcome speech. Grandma's, County Magistrate Liu couldn't help but scold her mother, blaming the security team for doing it too fast, and she really didn't have time to prepare.

Looking at the dense crowd of people who came to greet him, although Xu Ming had never eaten pork, he still learned from the camera in the movie and kept returning the salute.

Xu Ming's deses are reasonable, Mr. Liu, a famous man from Qiyang who stroked his goatee just now, has made it clear that the night attack on Tengyunling will be recorded in the county annals. That is, Xu Ming finally left his footprints in history, albeit in a small county that was not well-known in China at the time.

Unable to resist the warm invitation of the villagers, in a village under the Wulong Pavilion, the county set up a banquet to entertain the security group who returned victoriously.

Seeing half of the soldiers on guard and the other half sitting upright at the table, Old Master Liu habitually stroked his goatee and said in admiration: "Since ancient times, there has been strict discipline in the fine willow battalion, and today I see that the discipline of the Qiyang regiment is solemn. Commander Xu really managed the troops well. ”

Although Xu Ming slandered in his heart: "You always like to touch your beard so much, this beard can still be kept, it is really a good way to cure your beard!" But the man stood up respectfully. He raised his wine glass with both hands and said: "It is the duty of our soldiers to eliminate bandits and secure the people, and I really dare not be praised by you so much. After saying that, Zhao Ren, Chen Huizhi and the others stood up one after another, raised their wine glasses and drank them all.

Yang Shiyi, director of the County Shovel Communist Committee, walked up to Xu Ming with a wine glass, toasted each other, and said with a smile: "Xu Tuanzuo personally led troops to raid Tengyun Village in the middle of the night, which is really admirable. Don't know what you do with these bandits. ”

Xu Ming was noncommittal, then turned his head to the county magistrate Liu Pengnian and said, "County magistrate Liu, what do you see? ”

Liu Pengnian rubbed his eyes, but he didn't expect good things to fall on him. The bandits seized during the Republican period were nominally handled by the government, but in practice most of them were dealt with by local militia groups or the military. Why is the right to dispose of it so important, you can imagine that most bandits have families, and whether these people live or die depends on the words of those people. Moreover, it is also learned how to die. For example, whether to give a whole corpse at home at once, or use a random knife to slowly cut it to death and abandon the corpse in the wilderness. The former has a considerable fee, and Yang Shiyi just said that he wanted to get involved in this. The profit margins here are too great!

Liu Pengnian saw that Xu Ming's words meant to involve him, and although he was excited in his heart, he still threw out a sentence: "The bandits were personally captured by Xu Tuanzuo, and I think how to deal with them is all up to you." ”

Xu Ming and Qin Lieping looked at each other for a moment, these people's eyes only saw money, but their eyes looked farther away. Xu Ming said: "I personally put forward three principles for dealing with it. ”

"1. The creators of the Qin Shangling tragedy must be dealt with severely!" As soon as he finished saying this, Niu San's family and the dozens of people who were lucky enough not to die were explained. “

"The leader of the Tengyun Village bandits must be executed!" There is no doubt about it, whether it is Yang Shiyi or Liu Peng's disposal, the three bandit capitals will not have a chance to live, the difference is only in how to die.

"Third, our department sent someone to observe the interrogation process." This will guarantee basic justice.

After speaking, he smiled and raised his glass to the county magistrate Liu Pengnian, "How to deal with it specifically, I think it is still arranged by you in accordance with the relevant laws of the Republic of China." ”

Yang Shiyi was quite unwilling, but after thinking about it, although the group in front of him couldn't participate, there were still some people who went home to hide for the New Year, and there was a lot of oil and water to fish out of it! Thinking of this, the old folds on his face began to release flowers.

Of course, not everyone in the security corps agrees with this, for example, Chen Huizhi felt that it was too cheap for the county magistrate. As soon as he muttered a few words, Qin Lieping heard it, smiled faintly, and asked, "Are you good at leading troops or Commander Xu?" ”

Chen Huizhi is also a straight person, and said honestly: "At least one or two years, I will definitely be a little better." ”

"If you lead troops to attack Tengyun Village alone, it's no problem!"

"Of course," Chen replied without hesitation.

"Then what if you pull up the team and attack alone." Qin Lieping asked very sharply, you Zhao Ren is not capable of fighting a group of bandits with such a good weapon. If you have the ability, you can pull a team alone.

Chen Huizhi had nothing to say, and even if he could win, it would not be like last night: directly destroy the wall with explosives and mortars, suppress the already weak enemy fire with heavy machine guns, and then use Mauser rifles imported from Germany to strike at individual recalcitrant ones with precision. Pulling the team by yourself, at most with similar equipment as bandits, no matter how successful the raid is, it is impossible to achieve no casualties.

Zhao Ren also walked over and said to Chen Huizhi: "You and I can learn thousands of miles of skills, one year is not good for two years, two years is not good for three years." But the ability of Qianli is something you can't learn in your lifetime. ”

Xu Ming was lying on horseback, and in a daze, he heard someone say about him, tried to open his eyes, and said, "Yes... Who... Who's talking about me. ”

Qin Lieping and Chen Huizhi looked at each other and smiled, but did not answer.
