It is now the beginning of January, and according to the lunar calendar, it is the twentieth day of the lunar month. The Security Corps is conducting routine team coordination training.

Xu Ming looked at the team that strictly followed the regulations, but his head was thinking about the Spring Festival arrangement. Suddenly, he saw the herald Xiao Liu hurrying over, judging from the sweat on his head, it was obvious that he was in a hurry.

"Something happened to Qin Shangling."

Xiao Liu introduced as he walked, Qinshangling is a village located in the northwest of Qiyang, more than 40 miles away, I heard that it was bandit last night, but the specific number of dead and injured is not known. But judging from the fact that the county magistrate came in person, it should be more serious.

Xu Ming saw the county magistrate Liu Pengnian walking back and forth at the door from afar, "Xu Tuanzao ......", as soon as he spoke,

Xu Ming waved his hand to stop him, this is not the place to speak after all. When they arrived at the house, County Magistrate Liu explained in detail what happened.

Yesterday, a group of bandits on Siming Mountain came down the mountain, and instead of choosing the villages near the mountain, they were in Qinshangling. According to the message sent by the security chief, at least 10 people were killed, and many women were snatched away.

Speaking of this, County Magistrate Liu was a little hesitant, and Xu Ming thought that he was difficult to tell about these shameful things. Just as he was waiting for a few words of comfort, County Magistrate Liu seemed to have made up his mind and said: "Xu Tuanzuo, as long as you lead people to suppress bandits, we will definitely raise 4,000, not 5,000 oceans as the brothers' money, and after the matter is completed, we will give 5,000 oceans." After speaking, he tried to stretch out his right hand and raised five white and chubby fingers in front of Xu Ming.

Xu Ming ignored him, turned his head and instructed Xiao Liu: "Inform the pistol squad and prepare the horse." ”

At this time, in the rural areas of Hunan Province, every household is steaming rice noodles and baking glutinous rice cakes, adults are busy, and children are playing, showing a happy situation of the upcoming New Year. But when Xu Ming rushed to Qin Shangling, what he saw in his eyes was a broken scene. The collapsed courtyard, the burned house, the blood stains on the ground have not yet dried. Walking into the village, there seemed to be the smell of green smoke left in the ruins, and the cold wind blew, and a charred roof beam fell to the ground with a "bang". As Xu Ming entered, he saw a group of people carrying a string of coffins walking towards the village, their faces expressionless, and the whole village was enveloped in an atmosphere of depression, sadness, and anger.

Twenty-five people died, eleven were wounded, and seventeen women and five children were robbed. The bandits chose a good time to suddenly attack on the night of the New Year's Day, and the people of the village were surrounded without realizing the disaster.

The chief whimpered and explained the situation in detail. Finally, he arrived: "Tuanza, you rest first, I'll go find someone to prepare a meal." ”

Xu Ming shook his head, and he walked into a house. Three corpses lay flat on the floor, their faces covered with white towels. The family was almost dead, the father and mother were killed, the daughter-in-law committed suicide due to humiliation, and only the two sons escaped by luck as helpers.

There was no sound from anyone else in the room, not even crying, and what crying would there be if a man died.

Suddenly, there were two dry howls outside the door, and two young men rushed over one after the other, hugging the corpse. Xu Ming couldn't bear to see this scene, and turned his head to the side.

Ignoring the guards' obstruction, one of the young men threw himself at Xu Ming's feet, his head banging, "Boss, please be kind and help me avenge, and I and the second man will lead your horse to fall and kick." The other young one also began to kneel and kowtow.

Xu Ming felt an indescribable humiliation, starting from the county magistrate Liu's money, to the township chief killing chickens and cooking for him, to the two young people in front of him crying blood and begging. He felt a voice in his head taunting: "Aren't you very powerful? Don't you have machine guns, machine guns? Didn't you just magnify the cannon and brag about protecting the country and the people? Suddenly, the voice became concrete, and a bandit who looked like a typical spat at him with a contemptuous expression.

He picked up the two young men, then bowed deeply and said with difficulty, "I'm sorry I'm late." Then he called Qiu Linfeng and the two guards over and gave a few orders in a low voice.

Xu Ming did not return to the camp, he took the pistol squad and the 13 young people in the village and walked in the direction of Siming Mountain. He had already asked Xiao Qiu to bring a letter, asking the entire security team to meet in Lijiaping.

Siming Mountain is famous because of the Siming Temple on the mountain, and the main peak Tengyunling is the second highest peak in Hunan, second only to Hengshan. Siming Mountain is located at the west end of Qiyang, and the camp is located at the east end, separated by nearly 200 miles.

In the evening of the next day, Xu Ming met with the security regiment that had arrived in a hurry, and Xu Ming set up his headquarters in a compound in Lijiaping and held a temporary military meeting.

There was no table of dishes on the huge table of the Eight Immortals, but a pair of freshly kneaded sand tables. Xu Ming picked up a stick as a baton. Pointing to the highest mountain range, he said: "This is Tengyun Ridge, the main peak of Siming Mountain." According to reliable information, Wu Zhenxiang is in Tengyun Village, west of Tengyun Ridge! ”

"The west side of Tengyun Ridge is Dengyun Ridge, the north is Wulong Pavilion, the east is Niangniang Pai, and the south is Liujialing."

"In the 9th year of the Republic of China, Wang Bangji suppressed bandits, besieged them on all sides, and achieved results, and he advanced according to these four roads."

Xu Ming told the geography of Siming Mountain and the general situation of the bandits, and he and Zhao Ren, Shangguan Min and others had already done several map operations. After the introduction, he looked around at everyone, "Do you comrades have anything else to add?" ”

Peng Cong stood up and said: "Comrades, the bandits were robbed the night before yesterday, Siming Mountain is more than 150 miles away from Qinshangling, and the bandits are not only murderous, but also stupid. At such a distance, the bandits carried women and belongings, and if we were decisive and fast, it was very likely that we would be caught off guard. ”

"What Company Commander Peng said is very reasonable, this group of bandits has probably forgotten their memory." Xu Ming agreed with Peng Cong's speculation, and he continued: "Now I order. ”

Everyone stood up. Xu Ming began to give combat orders:

"In the direction of the north road, Qin Lieping and his company are in the direction of Wulongting, from Taoziping through Lijiapai and Zhoujiapai from north to south, and the target is Tengyunling back road. Its Qin Xiangyi infantry platoon, Qi Qiming's machine gun platoon and Zhao Ximin's mortar squad were the first troops. When the team reaches the designated position, they may encounter the bandit and fire a flare gun. ”

"The east road is to advance on the south side of the Niangniang platoon, cross the peak and advance cautiously, the team consists of three companies Qi Qiming infantry platoon, Zhou Shiyu machine gun platoon cooperates, remember, this road is complicated, it is said that there are many hunter traps. Be careful on the march! ”

"The south is the main force, and I lead the second company and the regimental headquarters to advance from Yangcun Dianlingkou to Liujialing and Changle Village, with the second company Liu Junsheng infantry platoon, Tao Jurong machine gun platoon, Li Zheng mortar platoon and engineer platoon as the vanguard troops. Move forward with swift action. ”

"Qiu Linfeng took a group of people back to Qiyang County to prepare 50 coffins, and mobilized the county Shiren Hospital and Bo'ai Hospital."

"The rest of the units, led by company commanders Shangguan Min and Peng Cong, set up checkpoints in the villages near Wenmingpu, Dingding, and Huangpi Bridge, and arrested all suspicious elements."

Peng Cong was not wrong at all, Niu Heizi, the leader of the bandits, returned to the village in the afternoon. The first thing he did was to find a woman with fine skin and tender flesh to vent his anger mouth-to-mouth, and it was not until evening that he was satisfied enough to come out.

Niu Heizi ranked third in Tengyun Village, the big boss Wu Zhenxiang, and the second boss Wu Zhenyue. But now these two obviously do not have the demeanor of Zhenxiang and Zhenxiang. The two of them stayed at the table of the Eight Immortals, looking at each other wordlessly. and the upper end of Guan Gong like to maintain the same solemnity.

Niu Heizi saw these two such expressions, and snorted angrily, "Big brother, second driver, what kind of jerky did your brother make?" A white ass who has just come out of the academy makes Tengyunzhai afraid of being like this? ”

"What do you kid know, Lao Tzu still wants to spend a lot of money and the dredge surnamed Xu, the third child, you are a good thing, if you don't discuss it with the village, you can do it yourself," Wu Zhenxiang slapped the table angrily after saying this.

Niu Heizi's surname is Liu, and no one knows what his name is, maybe even he doesn't know. Hearing what the big boss said, he sneered dissatisfiedly: "Big brother, you don't have to worry about it, sooner or later I will arrest the person surnamed Xu and give it to our brother in the village (sodom, adultery)." ”

Wu Zhenyue saw that the more the third child said, the more ridiculous it became, and reprimanded: "What are you doing quickly, now in the last years, you can't do it against the government, let's do some (big tobacco) business and collect some money." If you do this, how will it end up in the future. "He hates iron now, and the third child is good at everything, but he is casual when he sees a beautiful little daughter-in-law. At that time, how majestic was the master of Wei in Siming Mountain, and in the 8th year of the Republic of China, hundreds of people were killed in one fell down the mountain, but in the second year, Wang Bangji came, surrounded on all sides, and claimed that thousands of men and horses were not bombarded by the cannons. Back then, he and his eldest brother were just shakers in the village (the lowest-status bandits, without guns), and the two of them hid in the cave to eat leaves and drink dew for half a month!

"For today's plan, only now and below are ventilated, let the fourth run for a while, and slowly send a few people back in the future, and then ...... after the wind has passed." Wu Zhenyue is worthy of resourcefulness and has already drawn up a set of treatment plans, but he doesn't know that Liu Junsheng's vanguard is less than 20 miles away from him!

Xu Ming walked on the mountain road (if this is also a road), and he was very worried about the road conditions, it is said that the road under his feet is the best to walk, but there are also many places with cliffs on one side and river ditches on the other. Every 5 people in the team are connected with ropes, and they are afraid of stepping on the air and falling.

The night at night seems a little cold, after all, it is winter, the cold wind blows, coupled with the desolation of the mountain peaks near and far away, the crescent moon hangs low on the top of the mountain, and it seems that people are small in nature, Xu Ming's heart can't help but be sad. But soon, remembering the dead of that family, the anger of revenge began to burn in his chest.

"Report", a soldier who came from the opposite side raised his hand and saluted, "Report to the regiment commander, Platoon Commander Liu has just raided a bandit's outpost, and the prisoner is being interrogated. ”

This is really good news, in Xu Ming's attack plan, what is most lacking is the specific situation of the bandits, this news is too important to Xu Ming, he felt a kind of excitement under his feet, and his pace of walking also accelerated. Although he was pleased, he turned back to the soldier and said, "In the future, it is not allowed to report and salute on the march." ”

The interrogation was very successful, and there were not 500 bandits in the village, but only about 150 people, and many of them went down the mountain for the New Year. There are more than 100 long and short guns in the village, of which there are twenty or thirty fast guns.......

In the Guoziling checkpoint, a group of bandits are burning a bonfire to keep warm.

"Fourth master, open the door", a shout sounded outside the door.

"Soul," one of the bandits swore as he opened the door, suddenly feeling a chill in his head, and a cold barrel of a gun pressed against his head.

Liu Junsheng didn't expect the second level to be so easy to take, he thought of several plans for calling the door alone, or cheating, or attacking, or detouring, or intimidating. But nothing worked! Xu Ming was also satisfied, the lethality of the raid against the bandits with corrupt military discipline was incomparable.

The third level is a bit of a problem, and the bandits hang a lantern on the road ahead. Xu Ming looked at his watch, it was already 3:55 in the morning, according to the original plan, if the signal flare was not released at 4 o'clock in the north, the south would attack alone.

"Look, Commander," Liu Junsheng pointed to the northeast, and three signal flares appeared in the sky like flying dragons.
