Chapter 304: Aftermath
After a while, the light in front of the restaurant suddenly dimmed, and two majestic and high-spirited men walked in side by side. It was Ye Mingyuan, commander of the cavalry brigade directly under the 97th Army, and Ma Benzhai, commander of the Jizhong Huimin detachment. When everyone saw these two famous anti-Japanese heroes, they hurriedly stood up to welcome. Only Se Zongfeng and Gao Shuncheng and the group were pale, and their legs shrunk under the table as if they were sifting chaff.
"Commander, Deputy Commander Cheng!" Ye and Ma saw Zheng Weiguo and Political Commissar Cheng coming over, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute and say hello.
Zheng Weiguo returned the salute and said with a smile: "Did you two make an appointment?" How did it come by such a coincidence! ”
The night owl glanced at Ma Benzhai and said with some unconvincing: "If it weren't for the division of troops to control the west gate and the north gate, we would have come a long time ago." ”
When everyone heard this, they hurriedly looked at Ma Benzhai and wanted to hear what he had to say. Commander Ma smiled and said, "Actually, we are almost the same, the south gate and the east gate are currently blocked by our department. ”
When Deputy Division Commander Wang and the people of the Renqiu County Party Committee heard this, they knew that the situation had been completely controlled, and their hearts were reassured. If it weren't for the discipline, I'm afraid that I would have cheered at this time.
The representatives of the business community were somewhat confused, and even caused some uneasy commotion among the crowd. A gentry cautiously probed: "Commander Zheng, I don't know why you want to block the city gate?" ”
Zheng Weiguo smiled slightly and said, "Oh, it's not a big deal, it's just to catch a few traitor spies." Fellow villagers, please rest assured that this operation will end soon and will not interfere with people's livelihood. ”
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard it, as long as it wasn't a barrage. Of course. When they heard that someone in the city had become a traitor, they were very angry and scolded one after another.
Se Zongfeng and Gao Shuncheng glanced at each other and found that the other party's eyes were full of despair. Gao Ningzi is different, his years of bandit career have allowed him to hone his extremely ferocious temperament. A fierce light suddenly appeared in his eyes, and while staring at Zheng Weiguo and the others, his right hand had already reached for the shell gun hanging from his waist.
Hearing a loud thud, the two guards who had been on guard for a long time quickly stepped forward and pressed him to the table. Company Commander Zhao of the cavalry company walked over and sneered: "How dare you be embarrassed with your little ability?" Drag it out! ”
Gao Ningzi was not convinced, tilted his head and shouted, "Damn it." I just hate being late. It's time to kill you at the gates! He scolded Se Zongfeng again: "It's all your fault for being an old brute, what kind of bad idea did you come up with!" ”
Before he could continue shouting, several soldiers rushed up and lifted him up, then tied his hands behind his back. Dragged out like a dead dog. The warriors hated this stubborn fellow. When tying and dragging, the hands are extremely heavy. Gao Ningzi rolled his eyes in pain. But this guy is really tough, and he didn't even snort the whole time.
As mentioned earlier, Gao Ningzi is a habitual bandit who does all kinds of evil. In the past, he did a lot of evil in Renqiu County. The locals have long hated it, but no one dares to provoke Gao Shuncheng's momentum. Seeing Zheng Weiguo take it down directly, many people couldn't help cheering.
Bang! Se Zongfeng was so frightened that he trembled, and he wanted to drink tea to strengthen his courage but touched the teacup to the ground. When everyone heard the sound, they all looked back, only to see that Se Zongfeng and Gao Shuncheng were already colorless, and there was a problem at first glance. The two of them are well-known in the local area, especially Se Zongfeng, who is kind and charitable on weekdays, and many people call them "Seshan people". Unexpectedly, these two people colluded with the Japanese army to become traitors, and everyone couldn't turn a corner in their minds for a while, and they couldn't help but look at each other.
Company Commander Zhao stared at the two of them and asked Zheng Weiguo for instructions: "Commander, how to deal with these two people?" ”
Se Zongfeng was so frightened that he fell to his knees, took a few steps forward, and pleaded: "Commander, the old man knows that he is guilty of a lot of sin, and he doesn't dare to be greedy for life, I just ask you to be merciful and leave a seed for our family." Even if the old decay goes to the eighteenth layer of hell, he will be grateful for the great kindness of the commander. ”
said that he kowtowed again and again like pounding garlic, and the knock was heavy and loud, and his forehead was dark and blue after a few clicks. When he raised his head, there were old tears in the ravines on his face.
There are many people upstairs who have dealings with Se Zongfeng, and some of them have a deep friendship. Seeing him fall into such a field, he couldn't help but feel a little sad, and they all turned their heads away, and couldn't bear to look at it again. It's just collusion with foreign enemies, conspiracy and rebellion, all dynasties and dynasties are the big crimes of the nine clans, and they can't hide from it, who dares to get involved? So there were dozens of representatives from all walks of life, and none of them pleaded for him.
Compared with Sezongfeng, Gao Shuncheng is much more single. As soon as he knew that he would die, he didn't bother to plead for intercession, so as not to be ashamed. What is the most important thing in the mixed rivers and lakes, isn't it face? Second, he doesn't have a big family like Sezongfeng. He was born very poor, and no one wanted to marry him when he was selling smuggled salt in his early years, and he didn't find a prostitute as his wife until he raised the flag to resist the Japanese half a year ago. The only surviving relative is Gao Ningzi's nephew, who obviously can't survive, and he still has a companion in Huangquan.
This is really a stripe that comes and goes without concern, Gao Shuncheng suddenly remembered this drama, smiled self-deprecatingly, raised his wine glass and threw himself up. While everyone was not looking, he secretly reached into his boot. There was a gun card hidden in it, and when he took it out, he opened the safety with his fingers, and then loaded the bullet with a rub on his leg.
Come on, Gao Shuncheng suddenly raised his pistol and aimed it at his head, and as soon as his eyes were closed, he was about to pull the trigger. Only then did everyone realize that the situation was wrong, and many people were so frightened that they exclaimed. said that it was too late, and then quickly, Company Commander Zhao, who was obviously still two positions away, suddenly flew up and kicked the pistol off, and copied it by the hand.
Company Commander Zhao swept the pistol with his hand and said sarcastically: "Yo, Senior Commander, you are so anxious to seek death, don't you say a word to everyone?" ”
Gao Shuncheng smiled bitterly: "If you want to die, you won't die for thousands of years." I haven't thought about a good death since the day I sold salt. At this point, what else is there to say. After speaking, he pretended to laugh a few times heroically, but he didn't expect to change his voice as soon as he came out, and it didn't sound heroic at all, but a little desolate.
At this moment, the bartender came in and asked, "Ladies and gentlemen, the dishes are ready, do you want to serve them?" Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly felt a different atmosphere. I shuddered with fear.
Seeing this, Political Commissar Cheng said in a low voice: "Commander, why don't you start the banquet first!" ”
Zheng Weiguo nodded and said, "Okay!" Everyone will be seated first, and then there will be anything to fill their stomachs. The people did not dare not listen, so they sat down in their places.
Seeing that Gao Shuncheng was still in his seat, Company Commander Zhao shouted: "Drag the two of them away, so as not to spoil everyone's appetite." ”
Zheng Weiguo waved his hand and said, "No need, let them also sit at the table!" ”
Company Commander Zhao was very puzzled, and let go of his hand with a confused expression, but still searched carefully. Gao Shuncheng's two box guns and Se Zongfeng's mini pistols were all confiscated.
Gao Shuncheng arched his hand and said, "Thank you, Commander, for making me a full ghost." I have received this friendship! After that, he began to eat and drink as if he had been released from a hunger prison.
Se Zongfeng didn't have such a good appetite as him, and sat on the seat in a daze, lost his soul. I didn't even take chopsticks. Zheng Weiguo quipped: "Why don't you eat it!" Speaking of which, this banquet is still made by your old man. You don't do it. How can we be embarrassed? ”
When the soldiers heard this, they laughed. Laughing so much that Se Zongfeng's face turned blue and white for a while, and he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't dare, don't dare!" ”
Zheng Weiguo didn't bother to pay attention to him anymore. turned to work with Political Commissar Cheng to appease representatives from all walks of life, saying that the incident had nothing to do with them, and let them work and live with peace of mind. These people are the "leading figures" of the local area. As long as they don't mess up, there will be no major changes in the situation. Of course, if someone insists on making any small moves, Zheng Weiguo is not afraid.
Some officers, such as Night Owl and Ma Benzhai, formed their own tables and began to talk about some issues in this operation. Officer, of course, three sentences do not leave the profession, and the discussion is how to fight.
Although this rescue operation was forced, it was a good exercise in the emergency response capability of the troops. The cavalry units shone even more, and their mobility capabilities were fully demonstrated in the operation. On a large plain like Jizhong, cavalry units were extremely powerful, and to some extent even surpassed automobiles.
When it comes to fighting, night owls are especially excited. He is a "man who comes crazy", the more people there are, the more energetic they are, and they blow their spit all over the place, and they are stunned to blow a dull march process into a thrilling one, and the masses who do not know the truth are stunned. The rest of the people snickered on the sidelines.
After the meeting was dismissed, Political Commissar Cheng called the county party committee and the county government over for a small meeting, and the main task was to calm the people's minds and prevent people from taking advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble. Zheng Weiguo was in charge of military affairs, and asked Deputy Division Commander Wang Guangwen to temporarily act as the commander of the 1st Guerrilla Division, and to control the situation with Ye and Ma.
After Political Commissar Cheng finished his work, he found Zheng Weiguo and said, "Commander, now that the situation has stabilized, I don't know what you plan to do with Se Zongfeng and the others?" ”
Zheng Weiguo said with a smile: "What else can the traitors do, pick an auspicious day to send them on the road!" ”
Political Commissar Cheng smiled, and then said, "Commander, I'm serious. Personally, I think that Se Zongfeng and Gao Shuncheng can not be killed, and only Gao Ningzi can be executed. ”
Zheng Weiguo frowned and said, "Are you worried about turmoil in Renqiu County and the 1st Guerrilla Division?" But I tested it today and found that their influence seems to be overestimated. Moreover, these two people colluded with the Japanese and conspired to rebel, and the evidence is conclusive, and it is not an exaggeration to kill them. I'm sure no one can fault it. Kill these two guys, and you can set an example! ”
Political Commissar Cheng nodded and said: "Of course, but we have not been developing in Jizhong for a long time, and the people's hearts have not been attached." If we can take the opportunity to show the generous side of our army, we will certainly be able to gain more recognition. Not to mention anything else, if the soldiers of the 1st Guerrilla Division saw that Lian Gao Shuncheng was not killed, they would not have to worry about being implicated. In this way, the morale of the army is stable, and it is also convenient for us to integrate it. ”
Zheng Weiguo was a little moved, nodded and hummed.
Political Commissar Cheng took over the persuasion again: "If it's just to take a breath, killing people is naturally the easiest way." But if you want to take root in Jizhong, you can't just kill people. ”
Zheng Weiguo sighed and said, "Okay, then how are you going to settle these two people?" Locked up, or sent to Jinchaji? Uh, just send it to Jinchaji, let Commander Nie have a headache, haluha! ”
Political Commissar Cheng shook his head and said, "According to my idea, Se Zongfeng can confiscate part of his property, and then be hired by the Hebei Central Bank as a senator." As for Gao Shuncheng, he can go to the military region or the United Front Work Department to work, so that we can launch propaganda fortifications against the puppet army......"
"Wait!" Zheng Weiguo interrupted him a little rudely, and said in surprise: "You mean not only not to kill, but also to give them an official?" Isn't that too much? What do the fighters think? ”
Political Commissar Cheng said: "This is the same as reorganization, the soldiers can not understand, but we must do their work." Commander, you are now in charge of the army, and you can't be rash! ”
Zheng Weiguo thought for a while, and said a little depressedly: "Maybe you're right, but I have to be a little unhappy." Let's take time to gather the comrades of the Military and Political Committee for a meeting and listen to everyone's opinions. ”
Political Commissar Cheng was about to speak, when a messenger hurried over and said, "Commander, Director Wang has sent an urgent telegram from Lixian, saying that the troops in southern Hebei have been ordered to escort a batch of supplies and personnel to the north, and they can arrive in central Hebei on the same day. ”
Zheng Weiguo was overjoyed and said repeatedly: "Okay! That's great! Ha Luha, looking forward to the stars and the moon, finally looking forward to it! ”
Political Commissar Cheng said curiously: "Commander, what is the good thing that makes you happy like this?" ”
Zheng Weiguo smiled and said, "Lao Cheng, you will know the Tao in two days!" (To be continued......)
