"Why are you so anxious?" Wang Yi chuckled and said in a ferocious voice, "Our independent regiment is having a hard time right now. If our brothers want to sell, let them do it. Chief of Staff, don't be anxious either. Those buyers have eaten mine. Sooner or later, you have to spit it out to me, and you have to spit it out to me with interest."
"Tuanzuo, what do you mean?" Yang Banan said with a solemn tone.
Although Wang Yi didn't say it clearly, Yang Banan had already heard the implication.
Because the military pay has been owed for many years, but the troops must eat. What should you do? You can only solve it yourself.
any solution? It's very simple. Think of a solution from the garrison area. The civilians have limited financial resources. Even if you scratch the ground, you won't be able to get much oil and water. However, the local gentry, gentry and Taoist organizations are all extremely rich. However, These rural gentry or Taoist organizations all have deep backgrounds, and you cannot touch them without complete evidence of guilt. Otherwise, you may be killed before you can get them.
Therefore, you have to set a trap for others. Selling weapons to them secretly is the most insidious trap.
Once confirmed, it is sabotage of national defense and treason. No matter how powerful your background is, nothing can save you.
In fact, this is an open secret in the vast Kuomintang-controlled areas, or it is already an unwritten rule. All theaters and defense zones are basically doing this. Of course, they don’t really want to put these rural virtuous people away. The Jinshen or Huidaomen organizations were killed just to squeeze some money out of them.
But that was in the Kuomintang-controlled areas, and the situation in the Japanese-occupied areas was different.
At that moment, Yang Banan said solemnly: "Tuanzuo, what do you mean..."
"What do I mean? What do I mean?" Wang Yidao said, "I don't mean anything."
Yang Banan naturally heard that Wang Yi was telling the truth, and then he frowned and said: "Tuan Zuo, think twice, Pu County is not like the Kuomintang-controlled area. This place is behind enemy lines. These rural gentry, gentry, and There is also the Huidao Sect organization, which has just been rectified not long ago, and people’s hearts have just calmed down, so we can’t mess around.”
As an officer student who graduated from the Central Military Academy, Yang Banan is essentially an upright soldier, so he is very disgusted with the practices in the Kuomintang-controlled areas. In his opinion, the conditions of the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army are worse than It's even harder to survive, so why can they survive behind enemy lines? But why can’t ****
When he first arrived in Pucheng, Yang Banan also hoped that through his efforts, he could use facts to prove that **** was no worse than **'s team. If **'s team could do it, so could they ****. But in the end, Yang Banan's efforts quickly failed in the face of the ensuing practical difficulties.
After holding on for a few days, Yang Banan chose to give up.
Because there are many things that Yang Bayan cannot change alone.
To give a simple example, Yang Banan wanted to ban smoking, so he led his men to arrest several company commanders and platoon commanders who were smuggling opium, and planned to shoot them after a public trial. In the end, Wang Yi killed these company commanders and platoon commanders with just one sentence. The platoon leader let him go, and Yang Banan angrily went to Wang Yi to argue, but Wang Yi choked Yang Banan with just one sentence.
If we don’t sell opium, how can I buy weapons and equipment
The leader of the group, Wang Yi, was the biggest opium dealer. How could Yang Banan ban smoking
If he couldn't even ban smoking, how could Yang Banan improve the military discipline of the army
So after a few days of tossing, Yang Banan gave up. This was not something he could change alone.
"Coming out of heresy?" After listening to Yang Banan's advice, Wang Yi said unhappily, "What does it mean to come here about indiscriminately? What are we soldiers fighting against the Japs on the front line for? Isn't it to protect their safety? They are protected by us, so shouldn’t they give us soldiers some food and drink? Isn’t this wrong?”
Yang Banan said: "That being said, there is something a little bit..."
"What are they?" Wang Yi frowned and said, "Chief of Staff, you don't have to worry about this matter."
Yang Banan frowned, but finally endured the anger in his chest and changed the subject: "So, how should we deal with the instructions from Vice President Wan? Wouldn't it be better if we didn't express it at all?"
What Yang Banan meant was that he had to fight a battle anyway and give an explanation to the superiors.
Wang Yi thought for a while, and suddenly lowered his voice and said to Yang Banan: "Chief of Staff, otherwise..."
Seeing Wang Yi's mysterious look, Yang Banan put his ear towards him, but after listening, Yang Banan's face immediately turned red and said, "Tuanzuo, isn't this good?"
Wang Yi snorted: "What's wrong? It's not just our family that does this."
However, Yang Banan still couldn't get over this hurdle in his heart and said, "I won't go anyway."
"Okay, if you don't want to go, then I have no choice but to make this trip. Who told you that you are a top student of the Central Military Academy and a protégé of the Emperor of Principal Chiang?" Wang Yi said in a weird voice, "But Chief of Staff Yang, there is one thing I hope You can understand that the things I did today were all for you, and in the future, don’t miss the old friendship."
Yang Badan's heart suddenly trembled when he heard this, and he said, "Tuanzuo, what do you mean by this?"
Yang Banan was really surprised, because Deputy Commander Wan of the war zone had told him privately that Deputy Commander Wan's original words were this: When the Wannan Independent Regiment established a firm foothold in Pucheng, Wang Yi, a local snake, has no use value anymore, so he will try to transfer Wang Yi back to the chief's department and let him take over as the regiment leader.
Could it be that Wang Yi heard something
Wang Yi chuckled and said, "Chief of Staff Yang, you are a smart person, and others are not fools."
After saying that, Wang Yi turned around and left. As he watched Wang Yi go away, Yang Banan's thick eyebrows were frowned. For a moment, it was difficult for him to judge the intention of Wang Yi's words. This might be Wang Yi was testing him, trying to get something out of him. It was also possible that Wang Yi had really heard something and took the opportunity to beat him.
Thinking of this, Yang Banan was a little confused. The environment on the battlefield behind enemy lines was really not that complicated. There were the New Fourth Army, the Japanese army, the traitors and puppet troops, the Huidaomen armed forces, the security teams of the rural gentry, and even bandits. Armed forces, various forces are mixed and intertwined, and even the Southern Anhui Independent Regiment is full of undercurrents. According to Yang Bayan's knowledge, several battalion and company commanders are secretly encouraging Wang Yi to defect to the enemy and become a traitor.
Yang Banan suddenly admired Xu Rui.
Xu Rui was in Meizhen at that time. He really dared to do anything. With three strikes, five divided by two, he wiped out all the Taoist armed forces and rural sages and gentry. If he hadn't been as clean and tidy as before, Xu Rui would have faced the little Japanese this time. During a large-scale raid, how dare you take the main force of the Dameishan Independent Regiment out and ambush Little Japan in Dawan and Teapot Ao
Maybe, I should also learn from Xu Rui and be a ruthless person in Pucheng
Thinking of this, Yang Banan's heart immediately started beating wildly.
(Dividing line)
Because he was worried that the Japanese would retaliate, Xu Rui led the main force to retreat, leaving a platoon behind for surveillance. This platoon was the 1st platoon of the 2nd Battalion and 4th Company, led by the company commander Xu Dekun himself.
Xu Dekun led the 1st platoon to stay outside the camp of the Hamura detachment until dawn. After making sure that the Japs would no longer pursue him, he led his troops back.
However, while passing through the Dawan battlefield, a group of unknown armed forces was discovered.
This group of armed forces was about the strength of a company and was carrying something on the battlefield.
Although the other side also set up a guard post, both sentries were very lazy. Therefore, when they discovered the troops led by Xu Dekun, Xu Dekun and the others also discovered the other party at the same time.
"Get ready to fight!" Xu Dekun gave the order, and more than 40 officers and soldiers immediately dispersed.
More than a hundred armed men on the opposite side also fell to the ground, aiming their guns at Xu Dekun and the others.
"Which part do you belong to?" Xu Dekun hid his body behind a rock and asked sternly.
"We are from the Wannan Independent Regiment of the 32nd Group Army of the National Revolutionary Army." The other person immediately responded, "What part do you belong to?"
"It turns out they are friendly forces." Xu Dekun's nervous mood immediately relaxed.
At that moment, Xu Dekun ordered the troops to lift the alert, and he also put away his gun and walked out from behind the rocks.
Seeing Xu Dekun and others lifting the alert, the armed personnel on the opposite side also immediately lifted the alert, and then an officer with the rank of captain came over and said hello: "Are you from the Dameishan Independent Regiment?"
"Exactly." Xu Dekun pulled on his military uniform and asked with a smile, "May I ask you what this is?"
A look of embarrassment immediately appeared on the captain's face, and he said: "Nothing, nothing, it's just that there was gunfire here last night. After receiving the report, my little brother quickly led the troops over here. I wanted to provide the friendly forces with the help I could, but I didn’t want to hurry up and hurry up, but it was still too late.”
"Really?" Xu Dekun smiled and glanced around.
Then he saw that the officers and soldiers of the Wannan Independent Regiment were loading Japanese corpses onto several large trucks. Seeing this scene, Xu Dekun immediately showed a disdainful smile on his lips. Xu Dekun could be said to be well aware of what the other party was doing. , this is certainly not out of any good intentions, to collect the body of the little devil.
This is obviously robbing the body and then using the body to take credit.
Seeing Xu Dekun staring at the Japanese corpse, the captain officer quickly explained: "Brother, don't get me wrong, it's not what you think. We are just here to help collect the corpse. After all, it is not good to let the little Japanese corpse rot like this." Well, it’s no joke if we attract the plague, don’t you think so?”
"That's right." Xu Dekun didn't bother to expose the other party and said with a smile, "Then you keep it first."
After finishing speaking, Xu Dekun turned around and waved his hand, shouting: "Brothers, let's go."
Watching Xu Dekun lead the troops away, the captain spit out thick phlegm and muttered, "What are you looking like?" Wasn't it just a small victory? (To be continued.)
