“…… Bang, bang!"" …… Catch the Red Bandits! Live or die! ”

“…… Grab one and get ten pieces of the ocean! Catch the Manchurian female bandit surnamed Jin and reward the ocean with three hundred! ”

“…… Ay? Didn't the female bandit offer a reward of 3,000 yuan on the notice? How did it shrink so much all at once? ”

“…… Where can the government's notice be taken seriously! After the layers of water, this bounty can leak down and it is time to burn high incense! ”

“…… Oh! Damn it! These red bandits actually dare to shoot and resist arrest! Give me a good fence! Let Captain Ding bring more people up! ”

……

The sound of gunshots, shouts, shouts, and barking dogs suddenly rang out in a chaotic manner in the quiet town of Changhua.

A group of untidy and untidy men, armed with various weapons, who looked like bandits, about thirty or forty people, were shouting and shouting and rushing up under the leadership of several policemen and a big young master in silk vests, and surrounded the courtyard rented by Wang Qiu and the others.

A young man at the head is the young master of the famous local tyrant and inferior gentry in Changhua County, the local acting police chief Zhan Tianhong, this person is about twenty or thirty years old, and his appearance is rough and looks quite good, but the pair of rather fierce triangular eyes have completely destroyed the handsome face.

“…… Listen to everyone, Young Master Ben is now going to encircle and suppress the red bandits! Please stay at home, young and old! Remember not to lose money if you die! ”

At this time, he was wearing a cyan jacket and carrying a half-worn box gun in his hand, while directing a group of minions to besiege the den of "foreign red bandits". While shouting threatening words, he also raised the box gun in his hand from time to time as if showing off, "Bang! Bang! "Two shots were fired into the sky to demonstrate.

And the dozens of minions under his command. He also shouted along the way, and did not forget to "take" something from the street vendors.

Soon, the sound of gunfire, scolding, and the cries of children in the town were mixed in a chaotic manner, and in an instant it was like adding water to a pot of oil, and it was boiling all at once. The original peace and tranquility disappeared in an instant.

Looking at such a scene of chickens flying and dogs jumping, boiling and rebellious. Director Zhan Tianhong is obviously very proud of his "official authority".

——As a former Whampoa Military Academy student, Director Zhan Tianhong has always been quite proud in front of the villagers in Changhua. Everywhere he calls himself a "protégé of the Son of Heaven...... But he himself knows very well how unreliable this gold-lettered signboard of "protégé of the Son of Heaven" is......

Back then, he was also a hot-blooded young man with lofty ideals and full of enthusiasm. was instigated by a few classmates and teachers. took the family's money and traveled thousands of miles south to Guangzhou to apply for the Whampoa Military Academy...... It's a pity that the ideal is plump, and the reality is skinny - just after a few days of real practice, Zhan Tianhong had a seizure of the young master's temperament, and felt that he really couldn't bear this hardship, so he only took classes for a week, so he found an excuse to drop out of school and go home.

Thereupon. A few years later, the Revolution broke out. The Northern Expeditionary Army swept through Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and watched the former classmates and teachers all become regiment commanders and division commanders one by one, majestic and powerful, and the young master Zhanda, who is still white, really regretted that his intestines were green - why didn't he grit his teeth back then and persist in the Whampoa Military Academy? Even if you have limited ability and can't be the regiment commander and battalion commander, it's not bad to be a company commander!

It's a pity that there is no regret medicine in this world, and the missed opportunity will not come again. And the workers' and peasants' movement swept by the Northern Expeditionary Army made the family of the young master Zhanda, who was a landlord and a local tyrant, suffer enough...... Thanks to Commander-in-Chief Jiang's resolute efforts to set things right and clear the party, he didn't let those lowly mud legs turn the sky over - I remember that when I killed the red elements in my county that year, Young Master Zhan was the most active when he was in charge of the war.

Due to the "outstanding performance" in the elimination of red bandits, as well as the family's shili and appropriate bribes, the eldest young master Zhan Tianhong finally got rid of his white body after a few years and became the acting police chief of the town. Therefore, even if Young Master Zhan arrests them, he will have no credit at all, and he will be held against the Blue Coat Society!

In fact, in Chiang Kai-shek's time, local governments were full of tricks in capturing red bandits. In particular, in those provinces where there are very few red bandits, because the upper peak has made it mandatory to arrest a certain number of red bandits every year, the localities have no choice but to rely on themselves, and even if there are really no red bandits, they must get some red bandits.

For example, Guangxi's system of arresting red bandits is very unique: if a suspect is arrested indiscriminately on the street, he will not be interrogated or punished, but as long as he writes a list of 10 people and signs a statement on preparing for Haode's departure from the party, he can find someone to release him on bail, and then arrest him according to the list, and so on...... As a result, the "red bandits" in the prison flowed in and out, and some even had the misfortune of "joining the party" five times and "leaving the party" five times...... In the end, he relied on this "merit" to report to the Central Committee: Our bureau dismantled hundreds of underground party organizations of the Red Bandits in a year, "saved" tens of thousands of Red Bandit Party members, and asked the Central Committee to commend Yunyun......

In order to complete the "red bandit arrest index", Hainan Island extorted money by the way, and even invented such a strange thing as "red slave owners...... It was a loss that the authority of the Nationalist Government at that time could not reach the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, otherwise I am afraid that even the "Red Lama" and the "Red Living Buddha" would be left - if the party chairman and general secretary were to be handed over by "reincarnation", I am afraid that the real Bolsheviks would collapse.

However, those places where the emperor is far away, of course, can come up with a trick to fool the central government. But the problem is that Changhua is on the edge of the Yangtze River Delta, not a few steps away from Nanjing, and the background of the acting director of Zhan Tianhong is not hard enough, so he really doesn't dare to make such a fuss......

Just when the eldest young master Zhan Tianhong couldn't find a way to make meritorious contributions, and he was worried all day long, the spy of the Blue Coat Society who was lurking in the underground party organization of the local red elements suddenly came to the door and said that it was a group of red bandits who had committed a big crime in Shanghai a few days ago. I just wandered to Changhua, and I spent money in the town to rent a yard to live in, so I asked the director of the exhibition bureau to send someone to arrest him quickly. In case these cunning bandits heard the news and escaped......

So, the eldest young master Zhan Tianhong was suddenly overjoyed, and hurriedly gathered a group of idle minions, and rushed straight to the red bandits' den. Due to his lack of experience, he made a lot of noise along the way...... It's a pity that as the saying goes, "a dog that can bite doesn't bark, and a dog that can bark doesn't bite." The guys under Zhan Tianhong's command, although they have no self-knowledge in terms of fox and tiger power and bullying goodness, they really fight a tough battle. But it was immediately revealed.

No, the red bandits in the courtyard had just fired a burst of shots, and they were so frightened that they hid behind them one by one and didn't dare to go up: "...... Gentleman. It's not that we don't do our best. It's really too powerful for the red bandits! One of the minions explained with a sad face, "...... Don't look at the number of us, but there are only five shotguns and three box guns that can only shoot iron sand, and the red bandits in the courtyard have 'flower guns' (submachine guns)! ”

“…… Get lost! Useless waste! Zhan Tianhong spat angrily, but he also understood in his heart that what the other party said was the truth, and he also understood what kind of virtue his subordinates were-thanks to him in his heart in advance, these bandits could flow from Shanghai to Changhua, and they must have something to rely on under their hands. There are a few good guns. Therefore, if you only rely on your own manpower. I'm afraid that not only will I not be able to bite it, but I will even break my teeth.

Therefore, Zhan Tianhong extinguished the idea of monopolizing the credit from the beginning, but notified the head of the nearby security regiment Ding early...... At the moment, as long as these red bandits are nailed and not let them slip away, then the errand is completed. As for the battle, it's better to leave it to the professionals!

So, the two sides are separated by several rows of courtyard walls, you come and go, there is a pair of shooting for half an hour, Changhua County's security regiment is finally late - this security regiment is a local militia organization, a total of more than 200 people, equipped with more than 100 rifles, but the brand of firearms is varied, wonderful: there are Austrian Manlisha, the United States Winchester, France Lebel, Russia Water Lianzhu, Japan Golden Hook, and some Qing Dynasty guns and firearms...... Only God knows how they managed to supply ammunition to so many guns of different calibers.

But in any case, having a gun in hand is always more confident than not having a gun in hand. Although the security regiment in this county has never been able to defeat the bandits, at least they can still suppress the mud legs. Now, with a huge numerical advantage, it will not be too much of a problem to deal with such a small group of roaming red bandits.

Moreover, in the arsenal of the Changhua County Security Corps, there is also a secret weapon with a long history: a bronze cast red-clothed general cannon!

——This is a super killer weapon of Yuan Chonghuan three hundred years ago in Ningyuan City, "eroded dozens of miles with one shot" and killed Nurhachi, the founder of the Manchu Dynasty! Now it is used to deal with the Manchurian female red bandit Aixin Jueluo. Qina, this "red Gege" who betrayed her birth class, can be regarded as lifting her!

At this moment, under the drag of four old oxen, this ancient and heavy killing weapon, accompanied by a tooth-squeaking sound, was finally dragged to the middle of the street, and the muzzle of the black hole pointed directly at the gate of the red bandit's den. Several gunners in uniforms hurriedly fixed the gun carriage with iron drills, and then piled up shock-absorbing dirt. Then use a mop to clean the chamber, fill the gunpowder, and stuff the shells...... It's like the Liaodong battlefield three hundred years ago.

However, just as Director Zhan discussed with Regiment Commander Ding and decided to wait for the red-coated cannon that "eroded dozens of miles in one shot" to fire, and immediately put all his troops into launching a general attack on the recalcitrant red bandit den, an incredible scene appeared on the battlefield:

“…… Boom—"

With a cloud of smoke and dust, a rammed earth wall that had fallen into disrepair collapsed, revealing a steel monster that shimmered with cold light behind it......

As a result, the regiments and policemen outside all stopped moving in an instant, and their minds were all shocked by this hideous steel beast.

- Thick hull, wide tracks, powerful turret, thick barrel...... It is clear that this is a tank.

For the residents of the coastal areas of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, who knew the most about the West Shijie in this era, they probably still knew what tanks were.

However, unlike ordinary tanks, this tank that appeared at the front end of Changhua Town was actually equipped with a bulldozer's bucket, and the bucket was sprayed with the four big words "civilized law enforcement". And on the side of the tank, there was also "one person demolition." The whole family is glorious", such a line of words that people can't understand.

The most terrible thing is that a bright red flag painted with a sickle and hammer is impressively hunting on the turret of this strange tank!

…… Could this be...... The tanks of the Red Party Red Bandits?

Oh my God! Those country mud legs who spend their days digging ravines in the backwoods. How can there be such a high-end and high-grade cutting-edge weapon?!

It's not scientific!!

And what do the words scribbled on the armor plates of these Red Bandit tanks mean? One person demolition, the whole family is glorious? What are they going to tear down?

In the midst of the despondency and frustration of the Kuomintang local reactionary forces in Changhua County, the turret cover of this tank was pushed open with a "snap", and a blonde and blue-eyed foreigner girl came out. I saw her boldly hold up a bottle of Erguo in her left hand and pour a few big mouthfuls into her mouth. Then he blushed with a cute little face, and while burping with wine, he slashed his right hand down with high spirits:

“…… Crush the past! Comrades! Let's teach this bunch of boring garbage a good lesson. Let them understand what it means to fight! ”

“…… Ula - the strongest of our Red Army! The armored troops of the Chengguan International Column, attack! ”

- Shouts in Russian, Chinese, English, French, Spanish, German, Japanese, and Urdu resounded in the sky for a while.

At that moment, the Kuomintang security regiment and the township police, who had already shrunk in fright. It's as if I feel the malice coming from the whole shijie.。

And then. They were quickly crushed into slag by the tank's tracks...... To deal with this gang of waste firewood with only half a broken gun, the armored soldiers from another shijie didn't even need to fire the cannon, and just rushed up and crushed it!

————————————————————————————

One, two, three, four, five tanks flying the red flag of sickles and hammers jumped out of an ordinary mansion one after another.

The Russian Maozi drivers, who had drunk at least two pounds and two pots, were happily burping while rushing forward with their tanks crookedly - anyway, there would be no traffic police to investigate their drunk driving problems at the moment - the bullets from the on-board machine guns splashed a string of sparks on the bluestone pavement...... Not to mention those unlucky ghosts who were shot and killed, even if it was just a sharp gravel that burst into the air, it was enough to make people let out a terrible scream.

As for the red-clothed general's cannon that was dragged out before as a "weapon to defeat the enemy". The next moment, he was hit by a tank and flew to the side of the road.

“…… Hiccup~~ It's so boring, it seems that it can be a little more exciting...... Comrade Wang Qiu. Hiccup~ Let's play our music! ”

The drunken political commissar Sonia hiccuped while manipulating the vehicle-mounted machine gun to fire a burst shot, using a 7.62 mm bullet to cut a Kuomintang policeman in two, and then satisfiedly poured another dozen mouths and two pots into his mouth, and then grabbed the radio intercom and shouted loudly.

Wang Qiu, who was sitting in a tank in Zuihou, could only roll his eyes helplessly, and then activated the loudspeaker of his tank.

The next moment, the majestic melody of "March Soviet" full of violent aesthetics resounded over this Kuomintang-ruled town.

“…… Our Soviets will punish the whole shijie, from the Baltic to the Pacific Ocean.

October's carols resounded across the land, letting the enemy know that the Red Bear was coming! ”

-- In the majestic singing, five tanks rampage through the widest streets of Changhua Town, crashing countless houses along the way, tossing the entire town into smoke and dust. From time to time, a barrage of bullets swept in front of you, scaring the fleeing enemy in front of you, and the ghost cried wolf.

Indeed, there were soldiers who bravely raised their guns and fired at tanks, even throwing grenades at them. However, such a meagre firepower could not leave even a few pits on the surface of the armor plates of the tank...... The ultimate fate of these brave men was either to abandon their guns and turn away, or to be knocked to the ground by bullets from the on-board machine guns, and then to be crushed to minced meat by the rolling tracks in the song of "March of the Soviets".

“…… Our Soviets will punish the whole shijie, from the Baltic to the Pacific Ocean.

The red light is shining brightly, and the mighty Soviet bear is coming! ”

——Seeing his own counterattack like a mantis arm as a car, listening to the "whoosh" bullets shuttling in his ears, feeling the roar of the tank engine, and the heart-wrenching red song, the remaining small group of strong men of the Kuomintang security regiment also had a nervous breakdown. They screamed and dropped their "Wanguo" rifles, and went into the alleys on both sides of the street, almost one step at a time, crying and shouting that they wanted to go home.

“…… Our Soviets will punish all shijie, and our glory is everywhere.

To those who dare to invade us, you will humbly submit to us! ”

-- After crushing those cowardly enemies who were poorly equipped, weak-spirited, and vulnerable, marched more than 300 meters in a boring and rumbling way, and maliciously caused a series of traffic accidents, the armored soldiers of the Chengguan International Column finally found the first target worthy of artillery - the Kuomintang Changhua County Government compound with blue sky and white sun flags fluttering on the roof, sandbags piled up in front of the door, and horses rejecting horses.

As a result, under the repeated destruction of a burst of high-explosive bombs, the poor Changhua County Government compound was completely turned into a piece of broken bricks and rubble, and there was smoke and dust and debris everywhere...... The blazing artillery fire easily tore through the thin white walls and green tiles, and the rain of debris and violent shock waves made people bleed in the explosion, and then lay dying under the rubble.

“…… Our Soviets will punish all shijie, and our glory is everywhere.

To those enemies who dare to invade us, you will submit to the most powerful Soviets!! ”

- Feeling the rumbling and shaking of the ground, the eldest young master Zhan Tianhong lay down in the middle of the street with his cheeks twitching, desperately seeing the tracks of the tank running over him...... It's not that he doesn't want to dodge, but in the previous desperate run, he first broke his right leg with a stray bullet, and then most of his body was crushed under an overturned cart, and at this time he was completely unable to move, and he couldn't even move himself to the side of the road.

“…… Mister! Mister! Okay, good! Stop it! I give up! The Red Army did not kill prisoners...... Ahh

With a terrible wail, the whole person of the eldest young master Zhan Tianhong disappeared under the tracks of the tank, and the skin, muscles, bones, and internal organs of his whole body were all crushed into fine minced meat by countless iron teeth in an instant, and then spread out on the street again in an inhuman shape......

……

On the afternoon of the next day, the Red Tenth Army had just arrived at Wang Yaowu's headquarters of the Kuomintang Supplementary 1st Brigade near Changhua, and encountered a Changhua County official who was suspected of being mentally ill. This person claimed that Changhua County had been occupied by a large number of Soviet ironclad troops, and asked the Nanjing side to quickly beg the American and British powers to intervene...... (To be continued......)
