Section 47 Pacify the whole county

The mood of the local people is mixed, the inaction of the local government, and the wanton exploitation of the landlords and wealthy businessmen make their lives unsustainable. Just in their despair, Zhao Niangzi appeared, she was a woman, but she led a group of tenants to rebel, broke into the landlord's manor and killed the black-hearted landlord's family, and since then it has been out of control, not only the landlords and rich households in the Guanshan area trembled when they heard the voice, but also the local officials. In just over a year, Zhao Niangzi's "Heaven Doesn't Care" team has grown to as many as four or five hundred people. Countless people who couldn't survive rushed to join it, and the momentum was amazing.

It is precisely because of the existence of this bandit that the local landlords are trembling, dare not act recklessly, and treat their long-term tenants much gently. Under such circumstances, as long as officers and soldiers come to "suppress bandits," these ordinary people will take the initiative to report and cover for them.

This time, the strength of the officers and soldiers who came to suppress the bandits was really amazing and strong, and the common people could not help but be in awe as they watched them ride on tall horses from a long distance. On the one hand, they are the heroes who killed the devils in the War of Resistance, and on the other hand, they are the people who let them live a good life, how should they choose? Fortunately, these officers and soldiers don't seem to be afraid of being known, so with Zhao Niangzi's ability, they will definitely be able to get the news in the shortest possible time, and in the case of early prevention and preparation, there should be no major problems, and at this moment they can only comfort themselves like this.

This time, the opponent he had to face was far stronger than the previous bandits, and after analyzing the situation, Beard felt that it was very unlikely that he would win by surprise like before. As the saying goes, a rabbit bites when it's in a hurry, let alone a gang of vicious horse bandits? Earlier, when they were at the Bundan Pass, the bandits who had been forced to fight back had already begun to fight back, and two brothers fell on the way to pursue, which made Beard feel distressed. These are all warriors who kill devils, they did not fall into the overwhelming shells of devils, they did not fall in the rain of bullets, but they fell under the guns of these bandits, which is really worthless.

Fortunately, the regiment commander seemed to have other arrangements, which made Hu Zi somewhat relieved, and on the one hand, he made a lot of propaganda according to the meaning of the stone, and on the other hand, he sent troops to guard the main roads and protect some villages in the north of Yifeng. Guanshan is too big, far from being comparable to those mountains before, let alone hiding five or six hundred people, or hiding five or six thousand people, it is also an easy thing, and it is basically impossible to exterminate the bandits in this kind of place. After surveying the terrain around Guanshan on the spot, Hu Zi understood the idea of the stone, and instead of wasting time and effort to go into the mountains to suppress the bandits, it was better to tie up the fence wall and wait for the bandits to come down the mountain to clean them up. At this time, Hu Zi couldn't help but admire the head of the regiment, no wonder the stone wanted to quickly cut through the mess to deal with Yifeng's affairs, without a stable rear, where would he have the energy to deal with these things? Thinking of this, the beard became more and more confident, since he couldn't find these bandits, let's see who can consume whom!

Just when the third battalion was busy in the Guanshan area with great fanfare, one night a few days later, the first battalion commander Liu Wenfeng commanded the first battalion to rush to Huanggangji overnight to attack Yifeng's largest bandit gang "Dayi Tuan", during which although it was blocked for a moment in front of the second walled gate, but a team of outflanked soldiers climbed up from the cliff behind the mountain peak, and launched an attack from their rear. Naturally, he just pulled his legs and ran, and there was no idea of resistance in it at all.

In less than half an hour, Liu Wenfeng climbed to the top of the mountain accompanied by Cheng Chong, and there were bandits who were killed everywhere along the way. It was slaughtered in the blink of an eye, and the entire Wufeng Mountain was filled with a strong smell of blood, like purgatory on earth.

No one thought that such a large-scale bandit suppression operation in Yifeng would be launched so suddenly, and Shi adhered to his usual style, thoughtful, and killed with one blow, not giving the enemy any chance to resist at all. It can be said that in order to annihilate this bandit, the stone began to lay out several months ago, and a few days ago it used the cavalry battalion to attract everyone's attention and launch a killing blow without warning. It can be described as a lion fighting a rabbit, and he also uses all his strength to make the enemy, who is not on the same level, not know what happened until he dies.

Liu Wenfeng looked at the corpses in the surroundings and couldn't help but be full of displeasure, these bastards, this is suppressing bandits, not killing devils, the murderous aura is so heavy, everyone is about to be killed, what do I use to supplement the troops? He snorted coldly and opened his mouth to curse. Cheng Chong, who was on the side, shouted first: "Go and tell those brothers, try to catch them alive, there are still a lot of vacancies in the camp, and you still need manpower to replenish them, don't kill them all." ”

"Yes," a few guards on the side responded, and immediately ran quickly forward. Cheng Zhong said at this time: "Battalion commander, I think the regiment seat is a little too careful, in my opinion, these bandits should be arrested and recharged, let them go to the front line to fight with the devils, and fight with the common people, and be cowardly in front of the devils?" Put a gun to their heads, you see if they dare to retreat! ”

Cheng Chong's preemptive arrangement immediately made Liu Wenfeng's anger unable to come out, he snorted coldly to vent his dissatisfaction, and then said: "The stick has to be sandwiched with carrots to work, if you don't kill them, where do they understand the beauty of life?" Let's go, look at how much food these people have robbed in the past few years, damn it, being a bandit has more money and food than officers and soldiers, what kind of world is this. Liu Wenfeng scolded hatefully.

When the news spread that the "Great Righteous Regiment" was exterminated overnight, the whole Yifeng was boiling, the common people were naturally cheering, and the landlords and wealthy businessmen everywhere were shocked. They suffered so much that they had no choice, and now they were wiped out overnight, and this group of Qiu Ba was really not comparable to those local security groups. Thinking of such a strong army being defeated in front of the Japanese army, how powerful are those devils? Thinking of this, they were a little desperate for the next situation in Yifeng, the Japanese army is only more than two hundred miles away from here in Nanchang, a day and a half away, can they hold it by relying on these hills?

Not to mention the thoughts of these people, the people in the Guanshan area were even more shocked when they heard the news, and the bandits on the mountain were even more closely guarded everywhere, guarding against them day and night, not daring to be careless at all, for fear of ending up with the same fate as the gang of the "Great Righteous Regiment."

Lin Xiufeng was very happy after receiving Liu Wenfeng's report, since he was also in charge of Yifeng's civil affairs, he was busy with almost no free time, but this long-lost busyness was exactly what he was looking forward to, which made him feel his value and made him full of energy. Now that a large amount of grain has been seized, he is even more excited. A few days ago, a large amount of grain captured by the cavalry company greatly alleviated the food shortage here in Yifeng, the rice and grain were abundant, and the brothers' food was guaranteed, and their hearts were steady.

Following behind the head of the regiment is a pleasure! is what Lin Xiufeng thinks in his heart, whether it is fighting a war or dealing with civil affairs, that kind of neat and effective means are far from being comparable to ordinary people. In the various military counties, when the officers were close to the local officials for a little grain and grass, not only was the storage of grain sufficient here in their independent regiment, but the brothers in the regiment even divided the fields, which they could not have imagined before.

In the next few days, as the bearded cavalry company had made a great gain in the previous days, the men would happily carry the grain and carry the groceries, but this time the procession was followed by a long line of prisoners, numbering in the hundreds. The faces of these people were full of fear and anxiety, and when they looked at the soldiers of the battalion on the side, they also looked frightened. Obviously, the events of that night left too deep an impression on their minds.

Shi personally went outside the city to greet Liu Wenfeng and the others, and he also greatly appreciated their actions this time, defeating the largest bandit gang in Yifeng has a great impact on the stability of the county, especially the kind of deterrent power, which is enough to make other bandits and thieves dare not have any more ideas. And for so many prisoners brought back by the first battalion, Shi Shi didn't say much, since the madman thought that these people were useful, he was naturally willing to let them use.

Next, in front of them was only the gang of "heaven and earth" in the Guanshan area.

Seeing that everything is in order in Yifeng now, the displaced people who rent the fields are plowing the fields and repairing the canals with peace of mind, waiting for the best season for winter planting. The displaced people who did not rent the fields were requisitioned to build fortifications on various points in Yifeng to cope with the possible war in the future, and there was a busy scene everywhere, as long as they were willing to work, they would have enough to eat, this kind of generous treatment was very attractive in the current year, and Lin Xiufeng also showed strong management skills, and arranged all affairs in an orderly manner.

In this case, in order to solve this not the largest, but the most difficult bandit team, Shi decided to go to the vicinity of Guanshan in person to see if there was a way to solve the problem in the shortest possible time.
