Chapter 88: Bloody Suifen River
At the end of February, the Suifen River was still frozen, the ice was covered with the snow that had accumulated for a winter, and it had been sun-dried, and the old forests on the river bank were intertwined with shrubs, hiding wild beasts and unknown dangers.
Seven large ploughs laden with cattle moved forward slowly, while the mountains of goods were stacked with escorts. The middle-aged man on the first plough scanned the dense forest on the shore vigilantly, anxious and uneasy, if they didn't arrive in time to Dongning before dark, they would have to spend the night on the river, and at the same time face the threat of cold, wild beasts and old Maozi, it can be said that they will die for life.
Two months ago, it was in this section of the river that more than 100 caravans were shot and killed by Lao Maozi, the goods were looted, and many people were ruined. If it weren't for the ruthlessness of the creditors, he would not have taken this risk with his brothers.
This person is wrapped in a sheepskin jacket, wearing a dogskin hat, wearing bare dog leather boots, surnamed Ma Kaishan, is the head of the Sancha River running business on the Suifen River, these seven large carts are all the belongings of him and his brothers, and he has the life to return to Dongning to make a lot of money, if something happens, there is no difference between living and dying.
It was nearly evening, the sun was slanting in the west, the light was gradually dimming, and seeing that Dongning could not be reached before dark, Ma Kaishan jumped down and climbed the plow to greet everyone, ready to discuss what to do. Suddenly, a shrill gunfire rang out in the woods on the shore, and flocks of startled birds fluttered.
"It's broken, there are bandits!" Ma Kaishan was extremely nervous, and finally encountered bandits. Several escorts pulled out their old cannons, took off their gloves, and pulled the bolts, making a loud noise.
Soon a dozen people came out of the dense forest on the side of the riverbank, all of them with high eyebrows and deep beards.
"Damn's old hair!" Ma Kaishan only felt that his throat was tight, and he spit out thick phlegm, they encountered the worst situation, as long as the wolves were caught in the daytime, they could get out of trouble, if they were local bandits, they would rob money and keep people at most, but they could meet Lao Maozi not only empty of goods and goods, but also have to take a life.
At the same time, people also poured out from the other side, and foreign bandits gathered more and more.
One of the escort people was desperate, spat on the palm of his hand, and said horizontally: "Big head, horizontal and vertical is death, let's fight with Lao Maozi!" ”
Ma Kaishan will never give up hope of life until the end, and urged everyone: "Hurry up and lie down and hide, wait for them to get close and shoot again, you can come back to me, don't do stupid things......
Before he could finish speaking, the scream of a bullet piercing the air sounded in his ears, and the young escort next to him, who had not had time to lay down, fell to the ground, blood gushing out from the bullet hole in his chest.
"Old pimple-" Cang Laosi shouted with a crying voice, and as soon as he got up, Ma Kaishan held him down.
"Are you tired of being crooked?"
The resistance was fruitless, Lao Maozi's eyes lit up, and he rushed over with a shouting and shouting, and seven carts piled up like a hill of goods, attracting these vicious bears like a magnet, getting closer and closer.
Ma Kaishan and his party closed their eyes in despair.
In another dense forest by the Suifen River, several Chinese soldiers in gray military uniforms were lying in a nest in the snow, seeing that the tragedy was about to happen, one of them was a thin man with white face and glasses, and said urgently: "Do you really want to see death and not save it?" ”
"Damn, there are only five of us, how can we save it?" A fat man scolded angrily.
The soldiers stopped their quarrel: "Don't quarrel, Liang Yucong, you operate the infantry artillery to land in the woods on the opposite bank, Li Qiuda, you set up the light machine gun to target the Russians, listen to my command, you both fire at the same time, and the others find their own targets and release their guns." ”
"Fire!"
Light and heavy weapons fired at the same time, although there was only one squad, but its momentum was still not something that the old Maozi bandits could bear, and the infantry artillery shells blossomed among the bandits, and there were immediately casualties, and the light machine gun bullets swept by, which made their hearts beat even more.
The old Maozi who gathered together began to flee in all directions, according to past experience, the people and horses who can have such firepower are none other than the army, and the army will do it desperately foolish drunkards, and the goods can be robbed at any time, but there is only one life, when will you not escape at this time?
The fat man couldn't enjoy hitting a few bullets, and when he saw that Lao Maozi had withdrawn, he scolded: "This group of red-haired ghosts is really fucking cowardly, and they were scared away before they could really fight." ”
The white-faced leather glasses wiped the sweat on his face, and secretly said that if these people really fought, a few of them might not be able to return to the regiment headquarters.
Standing up for the soldiers, Humpty Dumpty was half a head.
"Let's go, go see the wounded people."
Ma Kaishan thought that this time he was dead, but halfway he killed the life-saving Bodhisattva, and when he saw the soldier in gray military uniform walking out of the forest, he took off his hat for the man, revealing his black head and yellow skin, he was Chinese, and his heart fell back into his stomach.
Ma Kaishan got up to meet him, knelt on the ground, and said with the excitement of the rest of his life: "Sir, I kowtow to you, the chiefs saved the lives of our brothers, you take four of the seven carts of goods, it will be regarded as a reward for the villains, and the remaining three carts are for the villains to keep a capital." ”
Although the dwarf has seen a major event, this scene is the first time he has encountered it, and he hurriedly helped Ma Kaishan up, "This big brother, we are soldiers of the Beiyang Suifenhe Security Army, we don't take any of the people, these goods are all exchanged for your lives, so you can't take them, it is not suitable to stay here for a long time, and we don't have many people, so we will escort you back to China first." ”
Although Ma Kaishan has lived in the mountains for a long time, he has seen the market more or less, and after thanking him for his kindness, he put it up closely: "I don't know if the chief is under the account of Meng Dujun or under the account of Zhang Dashuai?" ”
Without waiting for the short man to answer, the fat man next to him put the Madsen light machine gun on his shoulder and said disdainfully: "What are they?" Listen, we are non-commissioned officers under the command of Brigade Commander Wu of the Suifenhe Public Security Army directly under the 6th Army Department. ”
Ma Kaishan saw his smug look, and said in his heart: It seems that the non-commissioned officer should be a big officer.
This dwarf is Qian Mingjun, former chief of the General Affairs Section of the Northwest Frontier Defense Preparatory Office, and is now the sergeant squad leader of the Beiyang Suifenhe Public Security Army. Everyone didn't expect that the first shot to go to Russia was fired by this gentleman, and he also drove away hundreds of old Maozi bandits and saved the Chinese people.
Wu Xiaoliang was rewarded according to his merits, Qian Mingjun was promoted to the platoon commander of the first company of the fourth battalion, and Liang Yuchun, the glasses man, was the deputy platoon commander. Everyone is jealous of the luck of these two people, who can pick up a big credit for nothing in an ordinary patrol.
After Ma Kaishan was escorted back to Dongning, Wu Xiaoliang met with the security forces and learned in detail about the situation along the Suifen River.
Ma Kaishan saw the general for the first time in his life, and replied tremblingly and respectfully: "Lao Maozi began to mess up after defeating the emperor, and there were more and more foreign bandits, and then a Meng Weike came to the west, and the bandits were incorporated to set up a guerrilla army, specializing in Shuangchengzi Potemkin." ”
When Wu Xiaoliang heard this name, he subconsciously thought of Catherine the Great's lover and asked, "Who is this Potemkin?" ”
"He is the brigade commander of the Shuangchengzi Infantry Brigade, and he has a black heart and has killed a lot of us Chinese."
