Chapter 15: In order to protect the best interests
The terrain of Ma'an Mountain is treacherous, easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Since the decline of the Qing Dynasty, foreigners have seized land in China. The bandits took advantage of the fire to loot and formed gangs according to the terrain.
The name of the person in charge of this Ma'an Mountain cottage is Erhu. He used to be a member of the Pingdingshan Red Gun Society, playing with two knives in one hand, strong in martial arts, and was said to be invulnerable. It is rumored that he is lustful and strong-hearted, and his sister-in-law who soaked in the Red Gun Club was attacked by everyone, so he had to bring his brother to East China in a panic to ask for a living.
At that time, the East China Lend-Lease Treaty had just been signed, and Erhu took this opportunity to tie up a few rich children, in the jargon of bandits, this is called "please the God of Wealth". Erhu relied on those gods of wealth to ask for a large amount of ransom, and pulled a wave of poor people to occupy the mountain.
These two tigers are also really capable.
In the past three years, the Second Tiger has swallowed up many stragglers and bandit groups in East China, and the stockade has become bigger and bigger. It is said that there are now 2,000 people in Ma'an Mountain.
In troubled times, the strong are kings.
Amway: If such a talent is accepted by Jian Rui, it must be like a tiger, but bandits are bandits.
These two tigers still want to be the emperor's bandits.
Jian Rui recruited him twice, this person was extremely arrogant, and if he didn't say a word, he would behead the soldiers sent to the village, and also sent the head to Jian Rui to pass on the message.
If you want him to go down the mountain and follow Jian Ruicheng, then first vacate the position of the commander and let him sit down.
Jian Ruicheng had been staring at him for a long time, but he had never moved, because the two factions of South China and Central China were eyeing him and did not dare to take risks.
In the past, this guy was also robbing houses, robbing military rations, and tossing and tossing rich merchants. Jian Ruicheng turned a blind eye and passed.
But this time is different.
The war between East China and Central China was imminent, he collected a batch of ordnance from abroad at a high price, and let the bandit be greedy halfway, and he never made a deal, and finally stepped on Jian Ruicheng's death hole and had to get rid of it.
But if it is removed, it will have to be bloody, and it must be uprooted to prevent future troubles.
Because these two tigers are clever, they can be described as brave and strategic.
He has done the cause of bandits to the extreme, and when people hear about bandits, the first thing they think of is to rob their homes, but in fact they are not.
The bandits under the two tigers are divided into three categories: those who sell riots, those who invite the God of Wealth, and those who fight to the end with their officers and soldiers.
As the mastermind, Erhu has three brothers who are in charge of this great cause.
Zhang Liang, the second master, was a drama before, and he was the main seller. Generally speaking, it is specialized in abducting and trafficking women into brothel kilns, and women are often lost in East China in summer, and he will definitely not be able to escape from it. This person also developed the industry of selling sassers to the whole country, and half of the kilns may not have heard of Zhang Liang's name, and they also know that there is a top character called "God of Flowers".
Zhang Liang has high vision, many means, and the women who are transferred out are all absolutely top-notch. As soon as I heard that it was a woman sold by the god of flowers, all the major brothels would rush to ask for it.
The person in charge of the third house is called Black Panther, who is three or five thick, black and does not slip in autumn, and has a scar at the corner of his eye. Specially tied to the children of rich families in East China.
These four masters are really interesting, he used to be a soldier in Central China. It is said that he was not used to seeing this group of people betraying the country to seek glory, so he led a company of soldiers to fall into the grass, colluded with bandits, and raised his voice to protect his family and defend the country.
This time in the matter of ordnance, the eight achievements were picked up by this four-master Jia Gaofei.
Among the weapons looted this time were 300 guns, 20 artillery pieces, 50 shells, and 20 boxes.
Everyone looked at the simulated battle map, silent or silent.
They all knew in their hearts that the bandits had developed to this situation and could no longer be contained.
If a tough battle is fought, it will definitely result in countless casualties.
If Central China and South China seize this opportunity to send troops, it will definitely be a battle against the water, and East China will definitely fall.
"Tonight, let's take a team and go up to find out the news."
Jian Ruicheng looked around in the crowd and said, "Lin Qing is you." ”
"Don't ask for much, come back alive."
Lin Qing is also an old subordinate, and he has followed Jian Ruicheng for a few years, and he is loyal and agile.
"Yes."
Lin Qing took the order and went out of the tent to pick people.
Jian Ruicheng put down his baton and analyzed: "This company led by Jia Gaofei has been on the battlefield. His own soldiers are all professionally trained in military affairs, and they are also very familiar with the combat methods of our soldiers. ”
"Because of his participation, Ma Anshan's military quality has improved a lot."
"So, what we have to face is not ordinary bandits, but a regiment."
"They are more cunning, bloodthirsty, and cruel than the stragglers we've struck down before."
"This battle must have to pay countless blood and sweat."
Jian Ruicheng propped his hands on the table and asked, "If someone wants to quit now, I won't stop me." After all, you all have wives and children to raise. ”
Everyone looked at each other, and Shu Rongkai stood beside him without saying a word.
I don't know who in the crowd opened their mouths and scolded: "Fuck it!" I saw that this group of bandits was not pleasing to the eye, so I killed them early and went home early! ”
"That's right! Dry! ”
……
Jian Ruicheng nodded solemnly: "Then, I have two plans now." ”
"We can divide up and besiege them, and send them to besiege them on three sides and cut off their food sources first. Attack slowly, force them to this place, and wipe out all the people in the stockade......"
There is a natural barrier behind Ma'an Mountain, which is called the moat.
Here they don't have to worry about being attacked behind them, because it's a cliff that no one can climb.
"This takes a long time, I neglect to do the math, it will take about three months. Moreover, I'm not sure if the two tigers will jump off the wall in a hurry and break the net. ”
"The second option, assault."
When Jian Ruicheng said this, he frowned, and his tone was heavy: "This requires us to form a strong death squad and take the lead in attacking from the front. The reserve army will cover with fire, and first clear all obstacles here. ”
"The rest of the men, attacking from the flank, leaving five hundred troops to ambush in this canyon and catch turtles in urns."
Jian Ruicheng drew a circle on the drawing.
"We only have 5,000 people now, and the follow-up main force is already being transferred here from Xiangdong, and it can be reached in about ten days."
Jian Ruicheng did not hide from them: "I don't want to use this army, and this time I transferred them back to ensure the security of East China." I hope you can understand that we are now suffering from the enemy, and even if the bandits are settled, we will inevitably have a battle to fight with Central and South China. ”
"Our goal is this ordnance, and without it, we would be in a very passive position."
Jian Ruicheng said: "Although it is a little unrealistic, I hope that before the war with Ma Anshan, someone can represent me again and negotiate with the Second Tiger." In order to protect the best interests. ”
