Chapter 12: The Aftermath of War (22)

The moon is dark and kills the night, and the sky is high and the sky is set on fire. Approaching the Spring Festival, the cold wind is biting, and the sun has not been set for long, and the sky is so dark that you can't see your fingers. In the rain altar shop by Caizi Lake, except for a few rich families with ghostly oil lights, the rest of the place fell into darkness. Under the leadership of Liu Renkai, Zhang Shenghu's reconnaissance company infiltrated the village under the cover of night. Narrow streets paved with bluestone slabs, low houses, and chaotic layouts, this place, no one leads the way, and if you come in during the day, you are afraid that you will get lost, let alone at night. There is no torch with lighting, and he doesn't dare to open it if he has a flashlight in his hand, and the road under his feet is all about groping, Liu Renkai is obviously very familiar with this place, and he stumbled all the way safely.

Turning a section of the blue brick wall, there was a sudden light in front of me, and there was a dead wind horse lantern not far away, hanging on the courtyard gate more than one person high, swaying in the wind. If you look closely, there is a man shrunk in the courtyard gate, squatting in the most leeward door pocket, with his collar up, his hat pressed against his eyebrows, his hands in his sleeves, and a Japanese-style 38 cover leaning sideways on his shoulder.

Zhang Shenghu waved his hand and stretched out a hand.

Liu Renkai pulled Zhang Shenghu and said: "Company commander, can you not kill people, these are the children of Caizihu, and they usually don't do too badly, and I can't bear to die for no reason." ”

Zhang Shenghu smiled, his teeth were very white, and he was very conspicuous in the dark night. said: "Don't kill, it's more troublesome!" ”

"It's not a hassle." Huang Yingyi, the battalion chief of staff who walked behind him, replied that he had not experienced this kind of action, he was very curious, and followed Zhang Shenghu to see the excitement.

"What's the best way to sit down?" Zhang Shenghu asked with a smile.

"First figure out whether it is a single post or a double post." Huang Yingyi said.

It's easy to say, but it's not easy to implement. Zhang Shenghu shook his head.

Just when a gust of wind blew, I saw Huang Yingyi pick up a handful of sand from the ground, aim it at the door and throw it over. The sand rose and fell on the man who had shrunk up in the doorway, and the man was agitated and muttered something. The door behind him opened, and a head poked out, saying, "What's the matter?" ”

"It's okay, the wind is strong, and the wind and sand are blowing down on my head." The man said, "You stay in the courtyard gate to block the wind, and you will be able to stand it when you go outside the door in a while." ”

The poking head out of the door laughed and shrank back.

"It's Shuanggang!" Zhang Shenghu said.

"It's equivalent to a single post, and there's one in the door." Huang Yingyi said.

After a while, the wind became stronger, and the lantern shook even more, and the flames became flickering and dimming.

Zhang Shenghu estimated that the time was about the same, so he asked a group to touch the wall, and Liu Renkai also followed. When they arrived at the doorway, one of the two warriors pounced, one hugged the head of the gatekeeper and covered his mouth vigorously, and the other grabbed his legs and ran away.

Without waiting for the door to ask, Liu Renkai said to the door in a local accent: "It's time, let me in." ”

The door opened, and the people in the door walked out, but before they could notice anything wrong outside, they were dragged away with their mouths covered.

Liu Renkai went into the courtyard to take a look, but there was no one, so he beckoned to Zhang Shenghu, who took the lead and rushed in.

It was not the first time that Liu Renkai had entered this courtyard, and he knew that the wing room on the left was Sun Kewang's guard residence, in addition to the two outside, there were eight people in the wing, and Sun Kewang lived in the back hall with his good friend, separated by a central hall.

The room was still lit, and Liu Renkai looked through the crack in the door to see that a group of people were eating hot pot and eating happily. Zhang Shenghu asked Huang Yingyi, who was dressed in military uniform, to lead people to guard the door of the wing room, to maintain extreme vigilance, but not to shoot unless absolutely necessary. He took a few people into the backyard in a flash, gently pushed the back hall door, and opened.

In the room, a small oil lamp lit a bean-sized fire, the two heads side by side at the head of the bed were closed, obviously asleep, and the man's head was obviously scarred, which was the sign of Sun Da Scarla. Zhang Shenghu lifted the quilt, and two naked bodies appeared in his eyes.

Before the person on the bed could react, two warriors rushed forward, one on each side, and lifted Sun Dascar, who was sleeping outside, and threw him off the bed, and a horse brand oar fell to the ground with a muffled sound. It seems that this Sun Da Scarla's reaction is not slow, in the midst of this electric light, he has already picked up the weapon he carries with him, if it weren't for Zhang Shenghu's fast enough, I'm afraid that the bullet has already come out of the muzzle.

Throwing the quilt on the woman, the woman immediately rolled up in a ball and shivered on the bed.

Sun Da Scara is very calm, he knows that if the other party does not kill him in the first place, he will not do it again immediately, and he has time to think about how to solve this crisis. said: "Since you don't do it, it seems that my brothers don't plan to kill me?" ”

Zhang Shenghu shook his head.

"Then let me be so naked for people to visit!" Sun Da Scarla was a little angry, there was no fire in the house, and it was a little cold.

"Boss Sun has enough capital, and the golden gun does not fall a pillar of optimus, so people can see what they are afraid of." Liu Renkai said: "I heard that Boss Sun is all weapons, not naked, but I can't help but get a horse brand oar out of somewhere." ”

Zhang Shenghu looked at the thin naked body in front of him, a small earthworm-like object was not the same as the golden gun, and he found some clothes next to the bed to check it and threw it over.

Sun Da Scara took it and put it on one by one, with a fig leaf, Sun Da Scara began to become normal, looked at the few people in front of him, focused on Liu Renkai, swept his eyes up and down, and said: "I know you, you are from the fourth master's side, Guo Taiqing's little follower." ”

"Since you know, then the Ming people don't say secret words." Liu Renkai is very single, and he is not secretive, and he said in a high-sounding manner: "There is a way that the emperor takes turns to do, maybe he will go to someone's house next year." Boss Sun's days in Caizi Lake have not been short, should he give up this place and let the brothers mix for a few years? ”

"The bandits of the iron territory and the flowing water, Caizi Lake is placed there, if you have the ability, you can take it." Sun Da Scara said contemptuously: "It's hard to ask me to give it to you." ”

"That's right! Boss Sun, I'm afraid that this time I really want you to give it to us. Liu Renkai said even more politely: "Two roads, one road, if you die, Caizi Lake will belong to me." One way, you go, Caizi Lake belongs to me. Boss Sun is the nephew of Sun Dashuai in Hefei back then, Sun Dashuai has always respected us, and we don't want to tear our faces with the Sun family. ”

Sun Da Scarla knew that this time the other party was prepared, and it fell into the hands of the other party, if he wanted to be too strong, there was only a dead end. He is a person who is very knowledgeable about current affairs, and it is not his character to do what he knows cannot do. As for Sun Dashuai Sun Wancheng back then, it was already yesterday's yellow flower, and few people on the rivers and lakes gave him face anymore.

Sun Dascara looked at Zhang Shenghu and a few people, with a German Mauser M712 in his hand, and he was also quite particular about what he was wearing, the Western-style casual clothes were good, and there were no messy patches, not like the poor Red Army, I don't know where it came from. There is a way to live is the first priority, stay in the green mountains, not afraid of no firewood, leave Caizi Lake, go to Shanghai as a public servant, the income in Caizi Lake in recent years is enough to make yourself comfortable for the rest of your life. In the past few years, Sun Kewang has not thought about leaving, and the reason why he can't stop is because he has a group of subordinates, and they have to have a way to live. If you can find a way for them to live, you might as well wash your hands and quit the rivers and lakes from now on.

"It's not hard for me to go." Sun Dachara said: "It's just that these brothers under your command have to be handed over to you, and you have to give them a way to live." ”

Liu Renkai nodded and said, "Don't worry about Boss Sun, I know the second and third masters under you, and I have had contacts before, as long as they are willing, I will take charge of recruiting them." In other words, if they get in the way and disobey the jurisdiction, I can let them go, and I won't let them go with the gun in my hand. ”

Put on the coat and the dogskin hat, and Sun Dascar pulled out. Liu Renkai followed behind him, followed by Zhang Shenghu. Seeing the loaded people and horses in the yard, Sun Dascara gasped, he had picked up a life, if he didn't cooperate a little, he was afraid that there would be dead bodies everywhere now.

Pulling open the door of the side room, Sun Dascara walked in. Seeing Sun Da Scarla, the people inside stopped the noise and greeted Sun Da Scara one after another.

Sun Da Scara pointed to Liu Renkai behind him and said to the people inside: "Introduction, this is Boss Liu, I am going to Shanghai to do business, and Caizi Lake will be handed over to Boss Liu to take care of in the future." Go to two people, find the second master and the third master, and have important things to explain. ”

The captain of the guard casually pointed to the two men, and the two immediately put on their overcoats and walked out. Zhang Shenghu asked people to follow, two with one, fully armed.

The captain of the guard glanced at Liu Renkai and said, "Boss Liu!" I know you, but I didn't expect Caizi Lake to be dyed red in the end! ”

Liu Ren laughed and said, "Hehehehe, the mountain will not turn the water, and the water will turn if it doesn't turn people." ”

Sun Da Scara smiled and said: "In the future, Boss Liu will be in charge, and your brothers will all eat under Boss Liu, and you will treat Boss Liu the same way you treat me, and he will let you eat well and live well." ”

The captain of the guard asked people to clean up the hot pot, invited Sun Da Scarla and Liu Renkai to sit on the upper seats, and said to Sun Da Scarla: "I will go to Shanghai with you, and the brothers have no three families, and they will also go to Shanghai with you." The rest of the people who have small families will stay in Caizi Lake, and follow Boss Liu to eat and drink spicy food in the future. It's just that as far as I know, Boss Liu and his Red Party have always lived a hard life, and I am afraid that it will not be easy to live with them. After speaking, he shook his head.

At this time, Huang Yingyi pushed the door and walked in, he was wearing a national army uniform and the rank of captain, and he immediately stunned the people inside. "Who said it was the Red Party!" Huang Yingyi asked: "Below is the chief of staff of the guard battalion of the 176th Division of the 48th Army of the 21st Group Army of the National Revolutionary Army, but he is not a member of the Red Party. ”

Sun Da Scara glanced at Liu Renkai as if asking, Liu Renkai nodded, Sun Da Scara smiled and said, "I didn't expect Boss Liu to climb the high branch!" Then there is no problem, I will leave the same, I will take away those who want to leave with me, and those who do not leave will stay, even if they are recruited, they will have a good promotion in the future. ”

All the people bowed their heads, including the captain of the guard, Sun Jingming, the group of bandits in Caizi Lake, one-third were local fishermen, one-third were old habitual bandits for many years, and one-third were wounded soldiers of the national army who had been scattered. The fishermen don't care, who they follow is not looking for a stutter, and most of the old bandits have a conscience, as for the wounded soldiers of the national army, they can re-enter the army, why not.

Huang Yingyi's appearance shows that tonight's action is the recruitment of the national army, not the black eating black on the rivers and lakes.
