In the Northeast, Ma Wanzhong and the others are collecting information on the surrounding hills, especially their preferences! If Ma Wanzhong doesn't leave the Guannai, he is at least the commander of a dignified group army now! If you can't even handle the bandits on the hill here, it's really a shame to throw yourself home!

In fact, Ma Wanzhong is really ashamed, the bandits are not an army, they gather in the mountains and forests, in addition to surviving in order to eat and eat, what they want is freedom! And throughout the ages, it has been known that there is freedom everywhere, and there can be no freedom in the army! Ma Wanzhong is a typical professional soldier, from the beginning of the Northeast Army to the present, he has been a soldier for ten years, how can he get along with bandits at the beginning!

And it is true that Ma Wanzhong is the commander of a group army in the Guannei, but now that he is outside the Guan, it is useless to say anything! The locks on the hills pay more attention to practical things, and now they don't give them any real money even if they are given the position of a corps commander! And these bandits have been making their fortunes in the Northeast for a long time, and they are deeply rooted, what kind of big scene has not been seen! Zhang Zuolin, the king of the Northeast back then, was born as a bandit! So they didn't take Ma Wanzhong in their eyes at all!

"None of these mountain kings are good stubble! I thought I could do it easily, but I didn't expect to be careless! "Ma Wanzhong has just come into contact with a man in charge, the big boss didn't bend with him, don't have any false positions, as long as you have money, you can do anything if you give money!

But now Ma Wanzhong has no money at all, and the money sent by Taihang Mountain is still on the way, so he has no money to give them at all! When the big boss learned that Ma Wanzhong didn't have a penny, he didn't even let Ma Wanzhong drink a sip of wine, and directly drove Ma Wanzhong out!

"Division commander, they are just dogs who look down on people, who in the customs does not know the famous name of the division commander!"

Ma Wanzhong's guards saw that Ma Wanzhong was in a low mood, and knew that his division commander was deflated, so why did he have to slap Ma Wanzhong twice.

"Go and go, don't make trouble for Lao Tzu here, we are outside the customs now, everything must be analyzed according to the actual situation, we can promise Brother Fan at the beginning, now this situation is made, and when I go back, not only Brother Fan, but even Lao Hu will laugh at me!"

The first time he came into contact with the bandits, Ma Wanzhong was embarrassed, how could Ma Wanzhong be in a good mood, the situation they faced was getting worse and worse, if they didn't rely on the bandits, they would be able to be trapped by the Japanese army alive, Ma Wanzhong also wanted to open up their situation in a hurry, after all, he promised Liao Fan when he first came to the Northeast!

Unable to eat hot tofu in a hurry, Ma Wanzhong, who returned to the command headquarters, began to reflect on himself, failure is not terrible, what is terrible is that he does not dare to try again after failure! These soldiers have a characteristic, that is, they never admit defeat, whether on the training ground or on the battlefield, if they admit defeat, then they can only belong to a second-rate or third-rate unit, and they will never develop into a first-class unit.

"I like money, since I like money, I'll give you money, anyway, I can't buy supplies if I have money now!"

The blockade of the Japanese army made it impossible for them to raise much supplies at all, and if money could not be exchanged for materials, it would be scrap copper and rotten iron for them, and they could not eat or wear, and they were still panicking in their eyes! It's better to give it to the bandits, even if you win over the relationship, you can also exchange the materials they urgently need from the bandits, which is a good thing to kill two birds with one stone!

Originally, Ma Wanzhong also wanted to withhold the money sent in Taihang Mountain, and leave some points for the future development of his troops! But now that I think about it, they don't need money at all, they need a lot of supplies.

Three days later, Taihang Mountain sent real money to Ma Wanzhong, and the liaison officer personally handed over the real money in his hand to Ma Wanzhong.

"Master Ma, no! Now it's time to call you Commander Ma! Our Taihang Mountain has completed the military reform, and Brother Fan has appointed you as the commander-in-chief of the Northeast Group Army! The liaison officer said to Ma Wanzhong.

"Commander-in-Chief? So fast! Ma Wanzhong himself didn't expect to be promoted at this time!

"Brother Fan said, although you are the commander-in-chief, but in addition to the money given to you, you have no ability to support other people and materials, the second batch of gold will be here in two days, so you can be the commander of as many people as you have!"

"Brother Fan, it's still the same, the army has been reorganized, don't give guns or don't give people, it's still on your own! But this time, Brother Fan is generous enough to send us so much money, how is his old man lately? ”

Originally, he didn't have to worry about eating and drinking in Taihang Mountain, Ma Wanzhong was not interested in money, anyway, there was no need to spend money to eat and wear in Taihang Mountain, on the contrary, it was tiring to stay on his body with more money! But after coming here, Ma Wanzhong has a new understanding of money, a penny can starve people to death, and a dime can support people to death! Especially after the bandits were embarrassed, Ma Wanzhong realized the importance of money!

"Brother Fan has been worrying about things in the Northeast recently!" The liaison officer said to Ma Wanzhong, "I heard Chief of Staff Li say that Brother Fan has lost his temper in the headquarters several times, and he drove everyone out in the middle of several meetings!" ”

"Worried? Does it have anything to do with us? Ma Wanzhong thought of the telegram he sent back to Taihang Mountain last time, and he speculated that he should have deliberately exaggerated the facts, which caused Liao Fan's summons to become angry!

"I don't know about this, Commander Ma, I'm just an errand runner, where can I know so much!" Even if the liaison officer knew the situation in the headquarters, he couldn't tell Ma Wanzhong, all of them had been trained in strict secrecy, and they couldn't say a word that shouldn't be said.

"Alright then, you go to rest first, and then go back when you're rested!"

After sending the liaison officer away, Ma Wan was very concerned, he thought that it was his exaggerated telegram that caused Liao Fan to worry about them in the headquarters, so he rushed to the personnel in the headquarters to deliver the goods!

In fact, Liao Fan didn't ship the goods for Ma Wanzhong's matter at all, but the headquarters couldn't think of a good countermeasure for a long time, and the northeast was where they must come! If the northeast is not recovered, the base camp of the Japanese army will be able to use the northeast as a support point to invade China from time to time, and if you want to drive the Japanese army out of China, the northeast is a key place, that is to say, the northeast is not only the support point of the Japanese army, but also the support point of the new 33rd Military Region.

"Brother Fan, don't worry, I will work hard here and never let you down!"

Ma Wanzhong stopped the responsibility on himself, although Liao Fan's anger had nothing to do with him! However, Ma Wanzhong brought the money the next day and visited the bandits again, the bandits were their breakthrough, and if they made good use of it, they could not only obtain supplies but also harass the Japanese army, at least they didn't have to face the pressure alone!

Naturally, there are some boldness of the handmaidens, they don't care about money at all, they were forced to be helpless when they went up the mountain and fell into the grass, I heard that someone was going to take them to fight devils, these heroes were not ambiguous at all, and they were willing to obey Ma Wanzhong's command and fight little devils with them!

Of course, some bandits just fancy money, they live for money and die for money, but they will not sell their country for money! Of course, if you have money to make, you can still fight little devils, and they are more willing to do this good thing with one stone!

However, it seems that some bandits have ties with the Japanese in the first place, and some of them exist to monitor the nearby bandits, provide the Japanese with their movements, and then get enough benefits from the Japanese army!

A month later, the Northeast entered the middle of winter, and in this month, Ma Wanzhong also traveled all over the bandits on the hills, and Ma Wanzhong also figured out the situation of more than a dozen locks of all sizes!

Ma Wanzhong knows all about which locks have what kind of temper, and with these relationships with bandits, they can also get supplies when the snow closes the mountains, and the soldiers don't have to be cold and hungry!

Moreover, after the heavy snow closed the mountain, the Japanese army did not dare to attack rashly, and it was also difficult for the Japanese army to supply materials in such weather! And Ma Wanzhong's troops can be divided into small units and carry out a sneak attack on the Japanese army! The purpose is not to have a big gain, it is simply to kill the Japanese army, kill two today, kill three tomorrow, and the little devils who kill are beginning to be afraid!

The Japanese army can't go into the mountains to search, the mountains are all Ma Wanzhong's world, this kind of heavy snow cover, no one can be seen from a hundred meters away, and if you go into the mountains, you will be sent to death if you ambush!

So the little devils can only be beaten passively, they don't have a temper yet, they also want to arrange troops to ambush the Chinese army, but these Chinese soldiers come to a squad of soldiers, neither deep nor warlike, they run after the fight, in the snow, they can't catch up at all!

The little devils are miserable, in such a cold weather, they have to suffer frequent losses when they stand guard outside, this kind of fighting style of the Chinese army is too scoundrel! But in order to limit the development of the Chinese army in Yamauchi, they could only do this! This is the most effective approach.

Fortunately, the Japanese troops did not care about the loss of a few people at all, and the sneak attacks of the Chinese army were not often successful! The Japanese army is still enough to deal with it!

Ma Wanzhong was much more comfortable at this time, and the troops didn't have much to worry about, hiding in the room, baking a brazier, and his whole body was warm! And the troops who go out to perform the mission are also rotated, and the soldiers of one squad a day are rotated! The troops who did not have a mission also hid in the room to roast the fire! Although in the troops the absolute majority are northerners! But this cold in the Northeast is not at all a level for those of them who have just arrived in the Northeast!

"Commander! Our troops have been attacking the Japanese for so long, isn't it time for us to organize a large-scale operation! "The staff officer asked Ma Wanzhong's opinion! It's been a long time since they've been fighting class by class, and it's not a way to fight like this, the locks on all the hills are staring at them, if they don't fight a battle, how can those bandit leaders really obey them and let Ma Wanzhong take them to fight devils.
