Chapter 13: Fighting the Autumn Wind

3.13 Hit the autumn wind

These main leaders of the 10th Brigade led Shen Laoer's 3rd Regiment to the mountainous areas of southern Anhui. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The 3rd Regiment is considered to be the most loyal unit to Huang Haoran in the 10th Brigade for the time being, so now this kind of "good errand" naturally falls on the head of the 3rd Regiment.

There is a fairy cave on Yinping Mountain near Chao County, and the big bandit leader "Old Scar" in this area is entrenched in the fairy cave and is celebrating the Lunar New Year in 1933.

Since the founding of the Republic of China, the bandits in various places have not subsided, and some of these bandits even have to be counted from the long hair at the end of the Qing Dynasty.

A hill like "Old Scar" is a village that has been passed down for generations, and he has hundreds of guns in his hands, and the policemen in the local police station with tattered rifles can't afford to provoke their grandfathers on the road at all, and they turn a blind eye to what "Old Scar" does, and some policemen even collude with "Old Scar" to do this knife licking blood business.

The life of "Old Scar" in Chaoxian County is very prosperous.

The people in several villages near the foot of the mountain are like the domestic animals raised by his "old scar", who go to "hunt" when they want to eat meat, and sometimes he will take his team to the nearby county town to find some "harvest".

During the operation a few years ago, this gang of bandits robbed a young lady in a large family in the county seat.

"Old Scar" made people leave a message for the master of this family, and asked him to send 5,000 oceans to the mountain to replace people! Of course, his "old scar" didn't say that the person he sent back was still a yellow flower girl.

Now people have been sent to the "cave room" where the "old scar" lives, and the minions who are clamoring to make trouble in the cave room at night toast the owner of the village, and the "old scar" is drinking the wine in the bowl while thinking that the delicate little lady in the cave has begun to drool.

"Da Da Da ......"

There was a crisp sound of machine guns outside the entrance of the cave, and "Old Scar" led people to the entrance of the cave, only to see that the mountains outside the cave were full of big-headed soldiers with guns, and "Old Scar" immediately realized that it was going to be broken!

Head Shen stood at the entrance of the cave with a big horn with an iron roll and shouted at the cave, the words in his hand were handed to him by Huang Haoran who asked Fan Jie to write in advance, looking at the "lines" that looked like gibberish, Shen Lao Er felt a little dizzy......

Looking at Shen Laoer's embarrassment, Wang Shankui and Wang Huanzhi rolled in the back laughing.

Shen Lao Er glared at the two goods viciously, and then looked at the eldest brother flatteringly, and Huang Haoran motioned to Shen Yuanlong to hurry up and start shouting.

Shen Lao Er complained in his heart about why the eldest brother didn't let Fan Jie call this call, anyway, this draft was also written by Fan Jie, he was familiar with this word, wasn't he?

Head Shen cleared his throat vigorously and read the manuscript in his hand:

"Attention dear bandit brothers!"

"We are troops of the 10th Brigade of the National Revolutionary Army!"

"You're surrounded now!"

"Please lay down your arms and come out and surrender!"

"Please put your hands on your heads, everyone is lined up in a column, our policy is 'confess leniently' and 'resist strictly' If you resist to the end, it can only be a dead end!"

"You have the right to defend yourself, but every word you say will be used as evidence in court!"

Huang Haoran himself finally couldn't help laughing, but he didn't expect Fan Jie to record his words once and for all, and even copied the next few lines that he accidentally slipped out.

No wonder Fan Jie's face was full of evil smiles when he handed the manuscript to Shen Lao Er just now!

The "old scar" in the cave sounded like a cloud and mountain fog cover, and just as he was about to call a dog-headed military division to ask what was being said outside, the artillery of the 10th Brigade began to perform.

More than a dozen mortars were lined up, with three shots each, turning the bandits at the entrance of the cave on their backs.

Seeing that the artillery had been fully trained, Huang Luzuo waved his hand and let the infantry under Shen Lao's second hand start to attack.

In less than ten minutes, the bandits collapsed under the attack of the heavily armed 10th Brigade.

More than half of the more than 300 bandits were killed or wounded, and the rest were all captured with their hands raised.

"Old Scar" was beaten into a honeycomb by an impulsive machine gunner with a light machine gun, and the groom naturally couldn't do it.

Brigade Commander Huang is most interested in the collection of these bandits, this century-old "bandit family" is really well-off, Brigade Commander Huang looked at the pupils of the cave's belongings and turned into the shape of Brother Kong Fang.

Wang Huanzhi now knows where their "red envelopes" came from......

Fan Jie was pleased that the soldiers of the 10th Brigade had gone to a real battlefield.....

Wang Shankui and Shen Lao Er killed happily, and they were enthusiastically exchanging techniques together.

The senior officials of the 10th Brigade can be regarded as having their own gains, and they are all happy.

Huang Haoran decided to take advantage of the fact that the news of the destruction of the "old scar" did not spread in the bandit circle, and this "wise decision" was immediately supported by the other four, so until the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, the 10th Brigade swept almost the entire mountainous area of southern Anhui and raided more than a dozen bandit dens.

The confiscated rice, grain, and clothing were distributed to the people on the spot, and Fan Jie also had several groups of bandits executed, which was regarded as a great name for the temporary 10th Brigade.

It was when he returned the young lady kidnapped by "Old Scar", except for a small mistake, the young lady's father was overjoyed, and the plaque dedicated to Brigade Commander Huang actually read "Hua Tuo Reincarnated", which made Brigade Commander Huang very depressed!

After this "anti-bandit operation," the accounts of the 10 th Brigade were also plumped up all of a sudden.

The news that Huang Haoran led his troops to suppress bandits also appeared on the pages of a number of mainstream newspapers at the behest of Fan Jie.

When Huang Haoran came to the Huang family hall again during the Lantern Festival, the Huang family was already full of people, and the reporters from Shanghai and Nanjing flashed around with their cameras, and the old man Huang and the elders in the family smiled like a Maitreya Buddha. The celebrities of Wucheng who came and went piled up gifts all over the gatehouse, and Brigade Commander Huang smiled even brighter when he looked at the list of gifts handed over by Fan Jie.

After making up myths and stories to send the reporters away, Brigadier Huang felt that his facial muscles were showing signs of cramps.

But this can fill the purse, train the troops, and earn prestige for ourselves......

Brigade Commander Huang, who made a windfall, naturally did not treat his officers and soldiers badly, and brand-new clothes and utensils were quickly distributed, and everyone received double their salaries during the Spring Festival.

For the time being, the economic situation of the 10th Brigade is now completely relaxed, and in the words of Deputy Brigade Commander Wang Huanzhi, his eldest brother Brigade can now go to the Ministry of Defense to spend money to buy a military commander and come back to take up the position, and in three or five years, the military expenses of this army will not need to be given half of the military expenses by the Ministry of Defense.

For the time being, the 10th Brigade is really a bumper harvest this time!
