Volume 1 The End of the Outlaw Chapter 91 Such a Meritorious Achievement (I)
"What? You, you, you say it again! β
Wang Daohan, commissioner of the Shangrao Administration, jumped up from the high chair in shock.
The county magistrate who rode from Yushan to report the news was so anxious that he was sweating: "What I said is true! Commander Lu Kuiyuan, the commander of the spy company under the command of Wu Ming, the head of the Western Zhejiang Security Regiment, directly put the head of the gangster Zhou Laoliu on the desk of his subordinates, and all of us recognized it, and we will never be mistaken! β
Wang Daohan sat back in his chair and patted his head in disbelief:
"OMG! In just one night, one night, he actually wiped out more than 300 bandits who we had been encircling and suppressing for many years and had no choice but to do so? β
The fifty-year-old master standing on the side smiled so hard that he couldn't close his mouth, motioned for the young Yushan County magistrate to sit down, and whispered behind Wang Daohan's ear.
Wang Daohan was first surprised, then surprised, and then stood up excitedly, applauded, turned to the young and emaciated county magistrate excitedly, and asked loudly:
"Nephew, you said just now that Chief Wu Ming found a lot of items belonging to the Communist Party from the bandit cave, and Zhou Laoliu, a group of bandits, has joined the team of Fang Zhimin of the Communist Army in northeastern Jiangxi, and you still found some of their documents and books at the scene, right?"
"Ahh Yes? I didn't say that! And I've never heard of it before...... The subordinates only saw the head of the gangster Zhou Laoliu, and the deputy county magistrate and Director Chen of the county police department were also present at that time! β
The young county magistrate kept making a distinction, and when he saw Wang Daohan suddenly turn around, leaving him with a fat back, he immediately closed his mouth with interest, carefully recalled what he said just now, and still didn't understand what was going on for a long time.
"Ahemβ"
The master was in a hurry, and couldn't help coughing twice as a reminder, and the young county magistrate hurriedly raised his head, and saw that the master kept blinking at him, and was puzzled for a long time, and suddenly realized, and said loudly:
"Ahh The subordinates remembered to come, remembered! The magistrate Lu, who sent the head to the county office, did quietly tell his subordinates that there was such a thing, there was such a thing...... The subordinates were in such a hurry that they almost forgot about it...... Uh, no! It's that the subordinates are too happy to say it just now, and the preface doesn't match the afterword...... That's it, it's like this! β
Wang Daohan slowly turned around and looked at the sweaty young county magistrate kindly: "Well, it's very good, just now you said that Chief Lu reported that there were 309 guerrillas of the Communist Army, this number is not right?" Based on what we have known over the years, the number of guerrillas in Zhou Laoliu should not be so small! β
"Huh?"
The young county magistrate jumped up as if he had been electrocuted, and as soon as his small eyes rolled, he opened his mouth and came: "Yes, yes, my subordinates didn't make it clear just now, it seems to be five hundred and nine...... Yes? Uh, oh! Remember, I remember! A total of 709 communist troops were annihilated, which is a rare victory in recent years! β
Wang Daohan smiled with satisfaction: "Yes! That's right! That's the number, more than 700 enemies have been annihilated! This is the result of a total of 3,000 brave soldiers led by our Shangrao Administration and the Fifth Security Regiment of Zhexi Security Corps, who sacrificed their lives and forgot to die, which is gratifying! β
"Okay, you write out the detailed report immediately, write it here, and after writing it, I will lead the direct delegation with you to rush to Hengjie Town, Yushan, and after the on-site inspection is completed, sign and report it immediately!"
The young county magistrate looked left and right, and under the signal of the smiling master, he ran to the desk by the door, and turned back when he got there, looking at Wang Daohan worriedly:
"Uncle Shi, it seems that those Qiu Ba in western Zhejiang don't seem to be good talkers, Commander Wu Ming has been staying in Hengjie Town, and only sent a small company commander with a head to see the little nephew, and he was fierce, so he threw down his head and left."
Wang Daohan triumphantly turned the table and patted the young man on the shoulder: "Don't worry, the unapproachable Chief Wu Ming in your mouth is also my son and nephew, yesterday afternoon, we also drank together at the old man's house in Huanggu Town, and when I see him, you will understand, do as I tell you!" β
The young county magistrate was relieved, turned around in place to find the right direction, hurriedly sat down behind the desk by the door, lifted the brush on the pen stand, and wrote hard.
The slow master walked over, took out his reading glasses and put them on, lowered his head, looked at them carefully for a moment, and praised loudly: "Good words, good words!" A ball of righteousness, but without losing agility, much stronger than your old man's pen, blue out of the blue and better than blue, good! β
######
At night, under the polder pavilion in the east of Hengjie Town, the torches are blazing, and more than 1,000 people gather together, and the laughter is endless.
Dozens of square tables and round tables are connected into three long rows of banquets, Wu Ming, Dai Ziran, Lu Zhengde, Li Kun and others were surrounded by the mayor and a group of elders on the largest table in the middle, and frequently touched bowls with the villagers who came to toast, the villagers were indeed happy and supported from the bottom of their hearts, and the evil forces that pressed on the heads of all the kind people were finally eliminated.
In the noisy laughter, Lei Biao, who served as the alert commander, quietly appeared behind Wu Ming.
After listening to Lei Biao's report, Wu Ming stood up and hugged his fists to many villagers: "Fellow villagers, County Magistrate Zhang of Yushan County, Commissioner Wang of Shangrao Administration and others will be here soon, it seems that we have to add two tables...... Everyone get ready, Wu will go out to greet you. β
Everyone was in an uproar, and the mayor and the elders were shocked and excited.
For so many years, not to mention the commissioner of the administrative department, even the county magistrate has never come, it is already a blessing to be able to meet the county police chief or the chief of the civil affairs section, and on such a festive day, the commissioner and the county magistrate came together, how can the people not be flattered?
Wu Ming rode on a war horse, accompanied by Lei Biao and Dai Ziran, and rushed to the entrance of the village.
Under more than 100 blazing torches, Wang Daohan, who was standing in front of hundreds of officers and soldiers, hurriedly greeted him, Wu Ming saw that only Wang Daohan came forward alone, and felt a little strange in his heart, but he still quietly got off the horse and greeted each other politely.
After a few words of greeting, Wang Daohan naturally pulled Wu Ming five meters away, approached Wu Ming and whispered, and then held Wu Ming's hand and laughed in a low voice:
"It is precisely because of the sincere unity of your two armies and the fight side by side that there is a great victory in Guanyinyan's eradication of the red! In order to commend your army for its unity and cooperation, and move forward bravely, I decided to reward your army with 50,000 oceans, and widely publicized it within five days, mobilized the enlightened and wealthy gentry in various counties to actively help them, and then quietly gave 50,000 yuan to the brothers under the command of the virtuous nephew. β
Wu Ming was stunned for a long time under Wang Daohan's worried gaze, licked his lips and whispered out a paragraph:
"The subsidy of 50,000 yuan is too little, and more than 350 officers and soldiers were killed and wounded in this battle, which is tragic! The dead and wounded soldiers need to be given a pension of 50 yuan to their families, and in the future, they will have to smash pots and sell iron, and try by all means to raise expenses that exceed the pension several times, so that they can recruit new soldiers, and then complete the training and make up for the shortfall! β
Wang Daohan never thought that Wu Ming would be darker than him, calculated for a moment, and shouted in a low voice in a hurry: "Can't you die less?" β
"How can you die less? In this battle, 709 communist guerrillas were annihilated, thousands of people were defeated and scattered, and more than 300 people were killed and wounded. You also know the Tao of the past, but now in this world, it is difficult to be in charge! Wu Ming stroked his forehead and let out a long sigh of pain.
Wang Daohan smiled angrily: "What a, you have a kind!" Then add 50,000, and there will be no more penny! β
Wu Ming clenched Wang Daohan's hand and said very solemnly:
"Lord Wang, this battle was won with the help of the villagers in Hengjie Town, before the government posted a reward notice several times, promising to reward 10,000 oceans, we should win the trust of the people!"
