Chapter 62: Old North Wind, Hong Shengtuan
"My cousin Zhang Haitian is now taking his men to Wu Santaizi to rest, preparing hot water and hot meals for Commander Jiang over there, and then sending more than a dozen good men to Anshan in batches to investigate the situation, first touch the way for Commander Jiang, find out the reality of the Japanese army, and then we will start when we are full." Zhang Xianming said.
"Okay, knowing yourself and knowing your opponent, it is worthy of drinking foreign ink in Lushi. I heard that Uncle Zhang is from the artillery department, if Uncle Zhang doesn't dislike it, after this battle, go to the 7th Brigade, you don't know, there are hundreds of cannons in the arsenal, but there are too few qualified artillery in the 7th Brigade, I have touched the artillery and let them equip the artillery, and the results of the battle with the main force of the Kwantung Army are not satisfactory, nearly 100 cannons have not played a good effect, otherwise they can eat the two main brigades of the Kwantung Army before coming, if Uncle Zhang helps bring some artillery, the effect must be better. ”
Jiang Li was very happy, the township in this era is related to his family, if there is a local snake in front, his battle will undoubtedly be much easier. Zhang Xianming's arrangement is also very thoughtful, Jiang Li led the soldiers all the way to attack, people are sleepy and horses are tired, and they have to eat a lot, it is inevitable to waste a lot of time, with Zhang Xianshi's help, maybe the equipment of the steel plant and coking plant on the side of Anshan can be disposed of separately.
"If that's the case, my cousin and I will have to harass Captain Jiang at that time." Zhang Xianming was also very excited, he graduated from Lu Shi, so he naturally knew the gap between the guerrillas and the regular army, don't look at the 500 people pulled up by his cousin. But there are many people and few guns, only more than 30 guns. It's not enough for Jiang Li's side to fight in a platoon. And if he can return to his old job, Zhang Xianming is naturally willing, Huang Xiansheng has the highest status in Fengtian City at this time, but the army that can fight is basically under the command of Jiang Li. The most important point is that Jiang Li is a person who dares to fight with the Japanese army and has achieved good results, and with Jiang Li, he has a great chance of fighting the Japanese army.
"Okay, with a person of insight like Uncle Zhang joining, I will be more sure to fight the Japanese army in the future."
Jiang Li didn't bring many troops, but there were a lot of horses, and the conditions of the wharf on this side of the Taizi River were not as good as those on the Hunhe River, and it took nearly half an hour longer to cross the river than expected. Jiang Li talked to Zhang Xianming for a while, and he fell to the ground and fell asleep for a while. The other soldiers also took advantage of this short time to sleep for a while. There is still a battle to be fought in Anshan, and if you don't take advantage of this rare break to rest, a negligence on the battlefield may be a fatal consequence.
……….
"Damn, early in the morning, the chickens drove us up before they woke up, isn't it a bad crime?" Ma San rubbed his sleepy eyes and complained.
"The early birds have worms to eat, I heard that in the past two days, Zhao Erpole has made a lot of money by playing water ducks on the Taizi River (stopping passing boats on the river to pump protection money), maybe there are a group of people coming from Liaozhong, the big boss is not in a hurry to let us come to the bottom, if there is oil and water labor, we have no credit and hard work, the big boss eats meat, we have to get a soup to drink." Another middle-aged man who looked older was walking among the weeds with an antique Martini on his shoulder, one foot deep and one foot shallow, and his shoes were stained with a lot of water in the morning.
"Come on, just rely on our guns, the big boss has heard that there are a lot of guys in the past two days, all of them are Japanese-style rifles, and they are new. With this bit of goods in our hands, can we not fight for the few celebrities around the big boss? Stop dreaming. ”
Ma San yawned and shook his head and said speechlessly, and suddenly saw two or three figures in front of him shaking, dressed like dogs, wearing black robes, wearing glasses, looking like scholars Ma San had a happy face, they like to rob these intellectuals the most when they are bandits, and there are definitely a few literate people in this era, most of them are well-paid, and they come from the city and occasionally go to the countryside, and there are a few oceans on their bodies.
"The first few ones, stand for the uncle." Ma San and Wu Kui shouted, and walked straight forward in three steps and two steps.
"Two good men, I don't know what to advise?" The middle-aged man at the head was sturdy, and when he saw the two of them coming with guns, he didn't panic, and bowed his hand to Ma San and the others.
"Teach a fart, I planted this tree, I drove this road, if you want to cross this road, leave the money to buy the road." Ma San shook his gun, "Acquaintance hand over the money." The two brothers went out just to seek money, but they didn't want to hurt a few lives. ”
"Dare to ask the two of them, but they are from the Hong Sheng Tuan, and they are the people of the old north wind on the ground of Tai'an, and I hope that the two heroes can give a thin face." Xiang Qingshan arched his hand to Ma San and said.
"The man of the old north wind?" Ma San and Wu Kui glanced at each other, Zhang Haitian, the old north wind on the ground of Tai'an, is also a tyrant in the green forest, and he is also a well-known number one person from Liaozhong to Anshan, although the relationship with Hong Shengtuan has not been very good, but the two sides have always been well water does not interfere with river water, and the other party reports their names, but they can't really do anything to them.
"Zhang Haitian's rolling calf, Lao Tzu used to give him some face, but after today, Zhang Haitian is like an ant to Lao Tzu Hong Shengtuan, and he can be killed with his fingers." A hoarse voice sounded, and the first big man galloped over with dozens of subordinates, it was Hong Biao, the big boss of the Hong Sheng League.
"It turned out that Hong Da was the master of the family, but he really lifted a few of us." Xiang Qingshan saw that dozens of three-zero rifles behind Hong Biao were all the same color, and his pupils suddenly shrank, although after the Russo-Japanese War, many guns were left on the ground in the northeast, but how could the forces that could come up with more than 30 Japanese-made rifles be regarded as one of the best in Liaozhong, Hong Biao was a domineering person, if he had such strength, his tail would have stilted to the sky.
It is Zhang Haitian, with hundreds of people under him, more than 30 guns, and old sleeves, Liao-made guns, and Japanese-style guns. No wonder Hong Sheng has such a strong foundation, and he would never dare to say such things before. However, Hong Shengtuan has been silent for so long, and he is only a little famous in the area of Leek Terrace, where did he get these rifles?
"You think it's really for a few of you? Zhang Haitian's Wang Ba slowly ate the courage of the ambitious leopard, and dared to take someone from Tai'an to the leek platform without saying hello to me Hong, the clay man also has three points of earthiness, this time I don't give Zhang Haitian a little color to see, what will the people on the road think of me Hong in the future. Hong Biao snorted coldly, "The three of you, two of you stay, and one goes back to report the news, just say that I, Hong Biao, are waiting for Zhang Haitian to come over and worship the mountain at the Wei Leek Terrace." ”
"Xiao Cai, you go back and talk to the big boss." Xiang Qingshan knew that the matter had come to this point, and there was no way to be good. It is rumored that Hong Biao has been very close to the Japanese recently, and Zhang Haitian is going to come over to engage the Japanese in Anshan, if he greets Hong Shengtuan, wouldn't he be caught in the net, but he didn't expect to be heard by Hong Biao, it seems that things are a little troublesome.
"Uncle Xiang, you make it clear, I don't even know the road, what's the use of going back, it's better for you to go back." Cai Jimin said with a wry smile.
"It's okay, wait for me and the big boss to come back to save you." Xiang Qingshan was also born with a beard and was resolute, this was not the time to drag mud and water, he just nodded, arched his hand to Hong Biao again, turned around and strode away.
