When the Eighth Route Army detachment advanced behind the enemy to open up a base area, it was mainly divided into three steps, and it was famous, the first step was to find a foothold in the area and settle down, called to gain a firm foothold; After gaining a firm foothold, they will find ways to suppress the local tyrants and gentry with greater resentment or eliminate bandits from all walks of life in order to win the hearts of the people, which is called opening up the situation; After the situation is opened, there will be a mass base, and grain collection and taxation can begin, which is called consolidating the base areas.

By the way, not only the Japanese-occupied areas had to pay grain to little Japan, but also the base areas had to pay grain to the Eighth Route Army, after all, the Eighth Route Army was not a god, but also had to eat and dress, and where did the money for food and clothing come from? Of course, the people have to come out, and if it belongs to the guerrilla area that the Japanese army and the Eighth Route Army have repeatedly fought for, the common people will have to pay double food, and they will be miserable.

Gossip aside, Xu 19 and the dozen remnants of the 19th Brigade temporarily have a foothold in Qinglong Village, which can also be regarded as a firm foothold, and then the next thing to consider is to open up the situation, Xu 19 discussed with Gao Shenxing, and suppressed the Black Dragon Village on the back of the mountain first, first, to expand the armament, and secondly, to take the opportunity to deter the size of Qinglong Village.

After the end of the first battle in Panshi Valley, Leng Erye and the bandits of Qinglongzhai were intimidated by the terrifying combat effectiveness of the 19th Brigade, and had to accept the reality that the 19th Brigade settled in Qinglongzhai, but this does not mean that the more than 100 bandits in Qinglongzhai are honest, especially after not seeing the arrival of the "main force" of the 19th Brigade, some bandits began to become ready to move.

Yesterday afternoon, Yu Huan went to the stream to wash clothes, and when he came back, he was stopped by two bandits on the road, and he was almost raped, but fortunately, Gao Shenxing passed by and beat the two bandits violently.

Xu Shijiu said to Gao Shenxing: "Leng Er is afraid that he has a different mind, so we have to find another place to settle down as soon as possible." ”

Gao Shenxing pursed his lips and said disapprerovingly: "If you want me to say, you don't have to bother with that at all, isn't it just a group of bandits who rob homes and houses?" After cleaning up Leng Er, are you afraid that they will not obey? Whoever wants to take away their teeth, see how I clean them up. Gao Shenxing's words were domineering, but he was also confident.

Don't look at the bandits in Qinglong Village, there are more than 100 people, but the real bandits are actually more than a dozen or twenty, and the rest are all minions, as long as Leng Er and the dozen or so bandits are cleaned up by thunderous means, the remaining minions can't make any waves at all, and the reason why Xu Shijiu dared to go up the mountain was precisely because he saw this.

Xu Shijiu had other plans, and said: "Originally, I also planned to do the same, but after going up the mountain, I found that Leng Er's actions were quite bottom-line, at least he would not harm the poor people around Erlongshan, it is said that three years ago, there was a great drought in Longkou County, and Qinglongzhai even took out food to help the nearby villagers, so I don't want to touch him." ”

Gao Shenxing stopped talking, there were a few small bosses in Qinglongzhai who couldn't control the thing in their crotch, this is a fact.

But on the whole, the bandits in Qinglong Village still have a bottom line, the bandit leader Leng Er is especially a righteous person, hundreds of 38 big covers, four light and heavy machine guns and three grenadiers captured in the first battle of Panshi Valley, as well as a large number of bullet grenades, Leng Er was stunned and sent to the 19th Brigade stationed in Beizhai and handed over to Xu 19 for disposal.

Of course, this batch of ordnance to Zuihou was still given to Qinglong Village.

But it can be seen that Leng Er is still a bandit leader with a righteous spirit and a bottom line.

Such a group of bandits, the value of the co-optation is obviously greater than the purge, because after the purge, the strength of Qinglongzhai is bound to be greatly damaged, if it is co-opted, then there is a chance to slowly transform it, and finally completely absorbed.

Xu Jiu asked again: "I asked you to touch the bottom of the Black Dragon Village, how did you feel it?" ”

Black Dragon Village is the first target selected by Xu Shijiu, because Black Dragon Village is obviously different from Qinglong Village, Qinglong Village belongs to righteous bandits, and rarely harms the people, but Black Dragon Village does all kinds of evil, and the hands of the mountain wind are stained with the blood of the people, and even a three-month-old baby has been boiled alive, which can be described as inferior to beasts.

Gao Shenxing smiled and said: "I have figured it out, the Black Dragon Village is built on the Black Dragon Gang, there is only one path up the mountain, and it is full of traps, crossbows, and even the mountainside and the dense forest at the foot of the mountain are buried with land mines, the defense is not tight, but it is only to block ordinary people, etc., it is not enough to block me." ”

Xu Shijiu smiled and said, "Who are you, how many people can compare with you in the entire national army?" ”

Gao Shenxing shook his head and said: "If you really want to destroy the Black Dragon Village, it's best for the two of us to go, and take advantage of the middle of the night to touch the cliff from the back mountain, before falling over the mountain wind, and the other bandits will be easy to deal with." ”

"I have to let the people of Qinglong Village sing a play." Xu Shijiu groaned and said, "Otherwise, the bandits of Black Dragon Village will be lucky and desperate with us." ”

Gao Shenxing nodded in agreement.

(Dividing Line)

A moment later, Leng Er was invited to the other village where the Nineteenth Brigade was stationed.

Qinglong Village let the little Japan burn a fire last time, Dazhai and other villages are built temporarily, said to be a village, in fact, it is just a few thatched houses that erect a few wooden stakes, erect a few wooden beams and then cover thatched, fortunately, regardless of bandits or the national army, they are all used to living a hard life, and this little difficulty is nothing at all.

Leng Er was still smiling when he entered the door, but after listening to Xu Shijiu's words, Leng Er's face immediately fell: "Captain Xu, what are you talking about, you are going to kill the Black Dragon Village?" Did I hear me right? ”

Over the years, Qinglongzhai and Heilongzhai are located on the north and south sides of Erlong Mountain, and the well water between the two families does not violate the river water, and in previous years, the officers and soldiers occasionally helped when they came to suppress, but this does not mean that the two cottages can really coexist peacefully, in fact, whether it is the mountain wind or the cold second master, they have had the idea of annexing each other.

In this year, if there is a gun, it is the king of grass, and there are many guns, and the king of kings who has been in the green forest for many years and the second master of Leng can not know this truth? Just think about it, if you really want to move the real thing, then you have to weigh it, because whether it is Black Dragon Village or Green Dragon Village, it does not occupy an overwhelming advantage.

There is no overwhelming advantage, you can only attack strongly, once you attack, most of the time it is a lose-lose result, so even if you really swallow the other party, the strength may not necessarily be strengthened, and it may be weakened.

So these young dragon villages and black dragon villages have come over safely.

Gao Shenxing clicked and pulled the bolt of the gun, pointed the muzzle of the black hole at Leng Er, and said, "Do you think we are joking?" ”

Leng Erwei screamed, jumped up and ran behind Xu Shijiu, and protested repeatedly: "Senior Sir, the national army has an order, you can't point a gun at your own people, and you can't use a gun at your own people. ”

Gao Shenxing said coldly: "Our national army has such an order, but are you a national army?" ”

"Why isn't it the national army?" Leng Er shrank behind Xu Nineteen, and said in a loud voice, "My brothers and I are now officers and soldiers of the Nineteenth Brigade, and we are now brothers in the same pot of stirring horses, Senior Officer, please, quickly put away the gun, this thing is really not a joke, if it goes wrong, the Nineteenth Brigade will lose a general." ”

Gao Shenxing put away his gun and asked with a gloomy face: "Knowing that you are a national army, do you know how to obey orders?" ”

"Lao Tzu, uh no, I didn't say disobey orders." Leng Er poked his head out from behind Xu Shijiu's chair and muttered in a low voice, "But for such a big thing, you have to let me digest it, right?" After speaking, Leng Er said to Xu Shijiu again, "I said captain, attacking Black Dragon Village is really not a joke, you have to be cautious." ”

Xu Shijiu didn't speak, and Gao Shenxing said coldly: "Does the mountain wind have three heads or six arms?" As for what you're afraid of? ”

"Lao Tzu, uh no, I'm not afraid of him, senior sir, although you send someone to inquire, who have I been afraid of Leng Er in Longkou County for so many years? Back then, more than 1,000 officers and soldiers of the Longkou Security Regiment went in and suppressed, and they were all beaten by Lao Tzu and me. I'll be afraid of him? Joke"

"Then you don't agree to level the Black Dragon Village?"

The topic came back to the Black Dragon Village, and Leng Er said with a bitter face: "Senior Sir, you don't know something, the mountain wind is nothing, the more than 200 minions in the Black Dragon Village are just a group of rabble, and it is nothing, but Black Dragon Gang, like our Qinglongping, is an easy to defend and difficult to attack, if you really want to attack, you will pay all the brothers into it, and you may not be able to attack it." ”

As he spoke, Leng Er's eyes rolled and he suddenly asked, "Captain Xu, Senior Officer, when will the main force of the Nineteenth Brigade arrive?" As long as the main force arrives, take a mortar, and don't need to fight, the people of Heilongzhai will obediently open the mountain gate and surrender, so why spend so much time on your hands and feet? ”

"It's easy to say." Gao Shenxing said coldly, "Do you think it's so easy to march with a large army?" This is behind enemy lines, in Japanese-occupied areas, and if the enemy ventures into the ambush circle of Little Japan, are you responsible? As I told you earlier, it is impossible for a large army to come over before our advance squad opens up the situation and finds out the enemy's situation. ”

"Don't you have no big troops at all, just a few of you, right?" Leng Er muttered quietly.

The muzzle of the gun held by Gao Shenxing fell again, and Leng Sensen asked, "What did you just mush?" ”

"Nothing, nothing." Leng Er shook his hand again and again, while explaining, "I just said why it was suddenly hot this day. ”

"It's April now, can it not be hot?" Gao Shenxing said coldly, "Leng Er, let me tell you, our patience is limited, in short, we have suppressed the Black Dragon Village, now I only ask you, can you send troops?" ”
