Now there are many bandits in Daming, and of course there are no shortage of bandits here in Shandong. Most of the two prefectures of Denglai were swept away by the Liao rebels, and many prefectures and counties were broken by the judgment army, and they lost order for a while. Naturally, bandits from all over the country will seize such an opportunity and go down the mountain to raid frantically.

Song Tao contacted several nearby troops and found that everyone had encountered a similar situation. He immediately reported the situation to Li Ming, who received the news and sent out the teaching brigade, overseas brigade, artillery battalion, automobile company, and air force department.

The battalions were scattered to all parts of Denglai, and they found some Liao soldiers who were familiar with the local environment as guides. A large-scale crackdown on bandits began in the two provinces of Denglai.

The terrain of Denglai in Shandong is relatively flat, and even if there are mountains, it cannot be compared with the outer northeast. As soon as the Shandong army was ruthless, the bandits here in Denglai and the Ming army scattered all over the country were unlucky.

Two delta-wing aircraft, two helicopters, and four quadcopter drones hovered around in the air almost every day, and bandits and stragglers of the Ming army in various parts of Denglai had nowhere to hide, no matter how they hid.

Even if they occupy the most precipitous terrain, they will be burned to the ground by the incendiary bombs dropped by the Far East Air Force. The Shandong Army's efforts to deal with bandits and stragglers were like artillery fighting mosquitoes, but Li Ming still demanded that all units face them with the standard of actual combat, and regard this crackdown on bandits as a real battle.

This is good, in the face of the large-scale encirclement and suppression of the regular forces in the Far East, the bandits in the two provinces of Denglai are hard, there are planes and drones in the air, jeeps and armored vehicles on the ground. Not to mention the firepower, water-cooled heavy machine guns, mortars, and infantry guns beat the bandits and the Ming army to such a miserable beating.

Li Ming issued an order to the Shandong Army not to leave prisoners, and in just a dozen days, nearly 10,000 bandits and routs in Denglai were wiped out. The bandits in Dengzhou fled to the mountains in the east, while the bandits in Laizhou fled frantically to Qingzhou in the west.

But how could the Far East let go of such an opportunity to train troops, Li Ming ordered to continue the pursuit. The bandits in Denglai were so frightened that their souls were gone, where did this group of madmen come from, this is to be killed.

Song Tao, as the commander-in-chief of the Laizhou anti-bandit force, commanded the anti-bandit troops in various parts of Laizhou Prefecture. He didn't wait for the main force to come, so he gathered several reinforced companies around him, and transferred a drone team and a jeep, and then he went on a rampage to suppress bandits near Laizhou. In less than ten days, the bandits in Laizhou were wiped out.

The Laizhou bandits and stragglers fled to Qingzhou one after another, and Song Tao waved his hand and commanded the troops to advance into Qingzhou Mansion. After several days of trekking, the troops entered Changle County in Qingzhou. Song Tao saw that the troops were tired from the long march, so he shouted: "The drone team will fly the drones to reconnoiter the surroundings, and the others will camp on the spot." ”

Hearing Song Tao's order, the soldiers all got down from their horses and prepared for camping. Suddenly, one of the fighters of the drone group in the distance shouted: "Report, find out about the situation." ”

Song Tao hurriedly ran up when he heard this, and found a group of people hidden in a forest on the screen of the portable drone ground control station, densely packed with nearly a thousand people. Song Tao asked several company commanders to continue to organize everyone to camp, and he took a few special combat soldiers and two platoons of soldiers to a forest in the distance.

The targets are in the middle of a hilly terrain, and the terrain is very hidden, and it is difficult to detect them if it is not for drones. Song Tao asked the others to wait for orders outside, and he took a few special combat team members and walked into the woods carefully.

They climbed over several low hills and found a target in a valley opposite. Song Tao took out his binoculars to observe the situation, and built a fence outside the valley with some branches and trunks, which looked tattered and did not look like a bandit's stockade.

Song Tao called the two platoons outside with his headphones, and he felt that this was not a bandit's stockade, so he was going to go up and have a look. He got everyone ready, set up mortar and heavy machine gun firing positions, and walked up alone.

The people on the opposite side of the fence found Song Tao, and hurriedly shouted loudly, and also struck a broken gong, and the whole village was in chaos, with shouts and scolding everywhere. Song Tao smiled bitterly and shook his head, this is definitely not a bandit den.

By this time, the fence was already full of people, armed with sticks, axes, and bows and arrows. Someone shouted to Song Tao with a strong Shanxi accent: "Don't go any more, if you go again, you will release the arrow." Where are you from? ”

Song Tao slowly raised his hands and shouted: "I'm alone, I don't have a blade, what are you afraid of." There is no talk to come out of one. ”

After listening to his words, there was a lot of noise on the fence for a while, and the gate of the dilapidated stockade was pushed open, and a stout man walked out, followed by a dozen people, with swords and spears in their hands, and two people carrying bows and arrows on their backs, but they were all in tattered clothes.

The stout man said in a deep voice: "Which mountain is my brother from?" New here, haha...... Your trip is in vain, the village is full of old and weak women and children, so poor that they clang, and they don't accept our filial piety when they kill the tiger's mouth and the old black fang. ”

Song Tao and the others went deep into Denglai to suppress the bandits, and in order to reduce the trouble, they all changed into the clothes of the Ming Dynasty. So these people regarded Song Tao as a nearby bandit, and he couldn't cry or laugh. Song Tao smiled and said, "You guys came from Shanxi, why did you come here?" ”

"The fields in my hometown are so dry that they are cracking, how can I live if I don't escape, waiting to starve to death." Everyone fled in all directions and fled to Shandong, so they could barely stutter. Most of the people who ran out of their hometown starved to death on the road. ”

Song Tao was stunned, and then asked, "Then where did you get to eat here, do you also go down the mountain to do business?" ”

"Everyone has opened up some land in the mountains, and then caught some mountain rats and earth snakes from the surroundings, dug up some wild vegetables, and got some mountain fruits to fill up, hehe...... I was so hungry that I led everyone down the mountain to borrow some food, and caught up with Zhuangzi, who killed the tiger's mouth and the old black tooth, and called us too. ”

Song Tao understood that these people were not honest guys, and even so, he was not ready to deal with them. It's just a group of bitter homeless people, all of whom were forced by this man's cannibalistic world.

He clenched his fists and said with a smile: "Then I'll go, we'll have a date later." ”

Song Tao just wanted to turn around and leave, but the big man smiled and said, "Brother, your accent is not from Shandong." Look at your outfit, it's someone sent by the government, hehe......"

Listening to the big man's words, Song Tao smiled and said, "What's the matter, you still want to keep me?" ”

"Everyone fled here after killing a big family in Qingzhou, you came here without knowing it, no matter who you are, you can only count your fate bad. Hundreds of lives are in my hands, brother, I'm sorry. ”

The stout man waved his hand after speaking, and more than a dozen people behind him slowly surrounded him with blades. Song Tao smiled, he took out a pistol casually, "bang" a few shots, and the men in front were shot in the thighs one after another, and fell to the ground and wailed loudly.

The soldiers hidden in the woods also rushed up with guns, and Song Tao raised his hand and shouted: "Don't shoot yet......

In the face of such a change, the stout man was stunned, and the people on the fence also screamed loudly, and the village was also chaotic, and the cries were everywhere, mixed with the voices of children.

Song Tao raised his gun, walked to the stout man's side, and put the muzzle of the gun against the big man's head. I don't know why, Song Tao found that there was no trace of fear on the man's face, and he was full of excitement, his eyes were staring at the pistol in Song Tao's hand.

At this time, the village was already in chaos, and Song Tao said to Wang Bo and Zhang Tiehammer next to him: "Take someone into the village to have a look." ”

After a while, Wang Bo ran out of the village and whispered in Song Tao's ear: "All of them are refugees from Shanxi, as well as many old people and children. ”

The man took a deep breath and suddenly said to Song Tao: "Brother, what year are you here?" ”

Song Tao scolded with a smile: "You don't care what year I ......?"

When he said this, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly asked, "What did you just say?" ”

The stout man smiled bitterly and said, "Brother, put the gun down first, don't go off again." ”

Song Tao was furious when he heard it, this ...... What the hell is going on? He knew that this guy was definitely a modern man, otherwise he would not have known the pistol in his hand, and he would have known about misfire.

Thinking of this, Song Tao felt that his hairs stood up, and cold sweat broke out on his back, he was not afraid, but he felt panicked. He casually sent Wang Bo and the others away beside him, and said with a gloomy face: "Say, who are you?" ”

The stout man smiled bitterly: "I've been in the Ming Dynasty for several years, and I don't know how I came here." One night a few years ago, I went to the commune to run errands, and on the way back, I saw a point of light on the side of the road, so I walked over and touched it, and the point of light became a hole, and I felt strange and walked in, and as soon as I entered the hole, the hole was gone, and I arrived in the Ming Dynasty in a daze. ”

Hearing his words, Song Tao put down the pistol and dragged the guy aside. Then he looked him up and down, left and right, and then said, "What year did you come to the Ming Dynasty?" ”

The man didn't answer Song Tao's words, but smiled and said, "Brother, do you have a cigarette?" ”

Song Tao took out a cigarette and handed it to him, and helped him light the fire. The man took the cigarette and was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "It's still a cigarette, thank you, brother." I haven't smoked a cigarette pouch in years, so I really want it to taste. ”

He took a few big puffs of his cigarette, and then said slowly: "I came here in 1975, and I am still strange, I entered a hole, how did I come to the Ming Dynasty." ”

Song Tao also smiled bitterly when he heard it, he finally knew why the other party, as a traverser, would be mixed up with this force*. R1152
