Chapter 130: Capturing Guifu Alive
After Zhao Zengfu led the army to attack, Wang Maoru's heart also hung up, he didn't know what the results of the third infantry battalion would be, but the chief of staff Zhu Yongquan came to apologize, saying that when he and the staff officers were making plans, they despised the cold in the northeast, so that the plan changed, and the staff office was willing to accept the punishment as a whole. Zhu Yongquan also wrote a letter of resignation, requesting to resign from the post of chief of staff, which was rejected by Wang Maoru. Zhu Yongquan said that if Zhao Zengfu's sneak attack failed, he was willing to apologize with death. Wang Maoru shook his head and said: "This matter has nothing to do with you, the colder the weather, the easier it is for Zhao Zengfu and them to succeed. "Zhu Yongquan insisted that if he failed, he would bear it alone, Wang Maoru said that you want to pick a pick, such a big army, if you die, I have to be tired to death, if you want to die, you will be exhausted, and you will swallow a bomb to commit suicide, I will buy you two catties of eggs, you can swallow it.
The 3rd Infantry Battalion of the 17th Mixed Brigade, under the leadership of a guide who was not afraid of death, traveled to Zhalantun day and night, but on the way there was still a situation of freezing to death and frostbite, and three soldiers were frozen to death in the field because they fell asleep on the plow, and more than a dozen of them were frostbitten. This guide used to live in Hulun City, and he had some savings because of his petty business. Unfortunately, as soon as the Manchu Qing Dynasty fell, the Mongols broke through the Hulun City Gate, drove away the bannermen and the Han Chinese, and left those who did not leave as slaves. The guide, who had married a good-looking girl, had only been two years old, and the child was only a year old, and the rebels took a fancy to him, so they snatched his woman, threw his son to death, and drove the man away. This man is also hard-hearted, and he knows that he will definitely not be able to take revenge, so he keeps a useful body and waits for revenge. His woman was also fierce, and that night a pair of scissors cut off the Mongolian general's life, bleeding to death. The woman jumped into the Imin River and drowned. This guide hated the rebels so much, and said that only he dared to be a guide in this winter, and if he was a guide, he would first have to accept himself into the army. Zhao Zengfu said that this is easy to do, as long as you bring it, you will be my personal soldier, and the guide will gladly lead the way.
Finally, on the afternoon of December 25, 1915, the day of Christmas in the West, more than 720 people of the 3rd Infantry Battalion arrived at Zhalantun, bypassed the loose defense of the Russian road guards, and arrived at the Tekhadutong Camp in the west.
At this time, even the Russians all ran back to the barracks to celebrate Christmas, drinking and dancing, while on the other side of the Zarantun, the deputy governor of Sibutha, Guifu, was holding a woman in his room in the camp and toiling on her. This is his newly married ninth concubine, handsome, fine skin and tender meat, she fled from outside the border and was robbed by herself, fortunately she knew each other, otherwise how could her whole family reclaim the land in Hulunbuir and have already been killed by Babu Zabu's bearded soldiers.
The people of the third battalion of infantry came to the camp in Sibhat, only to see two sentries at the door who were so cold that they were drinking one sip at a time, it was too cold on this day, and the two of them were talking in Mongolian with angry expressions. Zhao Zengfu asked the guide what the two people said, and the guide said that the two people were scolding their chief Xun, why did they stand guard for so long for an hour. Zhao Zengfu nodded and sneered, and ordered his subordinates not to use their guns, and to use bayonets to go up and kill the two sentries.
The two high-ranking soldiers who were trained in martial arts took advantage of the darkness to touch the past, the two of them may have drunk too much, and the sound of the senior soldiers walking and stepping on the snow was not noticed, and the two of them were drinking while stomping their feet, which did cover up the sound of the sneak attacker. Seeing that they were a few steps away, the two senior soldiers rushed forward one of them, and the other of them had a personality, and the three-edged bayonet directly penetrated the thick winter coat, and blood gushed out. The two covered the mouth of the rebel sentry, who struggled twice before finally dying. When the senior soldier turned around, he was startled, and it turned out that there was also a rebel sentry in the door, hiding in the shed and squatting to sleep, and at this time he also woke up, immediately pointed the gun at him, and then pulled the bolt. The superior soldier was frightened, did he want to die here? The sentry pulled the bolt, but it didn't pull it, the bolt froze, and the two rushed up, one covering his mouth and the other killing, and soon solved the secret sentry.
"Okay, rush in...... Check whether your gun is frozen first" Zhao Zengfu also wiped a cold sweat, this made it too hanging, fortunately the bolt of the gun was frozen, otherwise this would not be called a sneak attack, but a strong attack.
The soldiers quickly checked that there was no problem, pulled the bolt, installed the bayonet, rushed in, and after entering, when they saw the rebels, they could use the bayonet as much as they could, and they could not shoot with a bayonet. Soon, gunshots came from the backyard, but this time there were too many people who came to sneak attack, more than 700 people, and the third battalion even brought four 20 mortars and three air-cooled Hatch Chase heavy machine guns, but it turned out to be useless.
The battle at the camp of Hattu in the west came and went quickly, with 700 men against more than 300 rebels who had taken off their clothes and were ready to sleep, except for those who were not afraid of death, the rest hurriedly surrendered. And after Guifu heard the gunshot, he immediately put on his clothes and ran away, but his nine-room concubine hugged him hard and said to take him with him. Guifu took pity on the fragrance and cherished the jade, and waited for the concubine to dress up and take the gold and silver before leaving, of course it was too late, and she was directly pressed on the threshold.
Zhao Zengfu glanced at the big black fat man and asked, "You are Guifu?" ”
Guifu said a string of Mongolian words, but Zhao Zengfu couldn't understand it, and said, "Since it's not, let's shoot it." The soldier couldn't understand the Mongolian language, and the guide next to him wanted to speak, but he was pulled and shook his head, and the guide immediately fell silent, and said in his heart that the 17th Mixed Brigade was really ruthless, and he killed more than 500 (in fact, less than 400) half a month ago, and today it is estimated that he has to kill a lot, and he is really worthy of being a butcher. How did he know that when Wang Maoru led the predecessor of this army, the Flying Brigade to garrison the brigade, there was a big name of Wang Butcher in Henan.
When the black fat man heard this, he was frightened enough, and immediately said in a broken Chinese Northeast dialect: "I am Guifu, I am Guifu, don't kill me, don't kill me, I am the son of Shengfu, the deputy governor of Hulunbuir, I am valuable, I am valuable." ”
Zhao Zengfu couldn't help but be happy, this Guifu is really interesting, and he even knows that he is valuable.
"Take it down." Zhao Zengfu couldn't help but smile and said with a cold face.
"Don't kill me, don't kill me." Guifu was anxious, "I have money, I have money." ”
Zhao Zengfu said: "Okay, you hand over all the money, and I will intercede with our general to spare you from death." ”
"Okay, okay." Guifu wiped his cold sweat, led people to hand over all his gold, silver and jewelry, and also handed over the gold and silver jewelry of Aunt Jiu, and the officers under him looked at Guifu, then at Aunt Jiu, and asked: "Battalion commander, do you have a female prisoner camp in our army, don't skip words."
Zhao Zengfu said: "No, for now." ”
"What's wrong with this woman, battalion commander?"
Zhao Zengfu scratched his head and said, "Forget it, let's go, what is the name of the chief manager of Hulunbuir?" ”
"Katsufuku." Aunt Jiu was too busy and said, "Hulunbuir is the deputy capital commander." ”
Zhao Qingdao: "Yes, it's Shengfu, you sue Shengfu, his son Guifu is in the hands of our seventeenth mixed brigade, let him think about what to do." ”
"Okay, okay." Aunt Jiu saw that the other party didn't hurt herself, the chicken pecked the rice and nodded in agreement, put on her clothes and ran away immediately, and when she left, Zhao Zengfu beckoned her back, stuffed her with a handful of jewelry and asked her to go to Hulun City as a fare.
To say that the people of the 17th Mixed Brigade really have an attitude of fighting against the odds, those newly joined soldiers thought that the army was like this, but they didn't expect that this was the result of Wang Maoru's regular education. Put the enemy to death and then come back to life, annihilate the enemy with absolute superiority, and it is better to cut off one of the enemy's ten fingers than to hurt them. This sneak attack was different from the last sneak attack on the Land Temple, because it was still next to the Russian Zhalantun railway station. There were twenty Russian soldiers stationed in the train station, which could not alarm the Russians. The premise is that the killing of prisoners in the land temple is nothing, but this time it is not possible, the Russians are watching. In fact, the Russians are also surprised, where did these people in black uniforms come from? Why did thousands of people suddenly burst out, and the weapons in their hands were better than their own, this is really a divine soldier from heaven? Looking at the dense forest, I wondered if they had really come through the woods. My God, then they have to go for three days and three nights, and it's still in the cold winter, that's too godly, isn't it? Is there a species that is frost resistant than us Russians? The Russians are very uneasy, that's a few thousand people--(The Russians don't have good eyes, from a distance they see a lot of soldiers in black uniforms running back and forth, they think that there are really thousands of people, this is the so-called three people become tigers, and they always exaggerate the phenomenon of fear.) )
The whole camp only rested for a while, and the next morning, after plundering the camp of Xibuthadu, Zhao Zengfu ordered the prisoners to be tied up one by one with ropes around their necks and waists and brought back in a string.
On the afternoon of December 29, 1914, the 3rd Infantry Battalion of the 17th Mixed Brigade, after a cold wind, heavy snow, and the attack of wild wolves, the prisoners rioted, and finally returned to the Ganjingzicheng military camp in Gannan County with difficulty, while 300 prisoners were killed due to frostbite and participation in the riot, and only 120 people remained. Fortunately, Guifu did not participate in the riot because of his timidity, and the person who organized the riot gave Wang Maoru a headache.
The person who organized the riot was called Harintai, ostensibly a Mongolian banner man, but his real identity was a Japanese spy, his name was Maeda Shinbei, who belonged to the Japanese Black Dragon Society and the Military Intelligence Department of the Japanese Kwantung Army, and was the leader of the Kwantung Army Special Operations Team, with the rank of lieutenant.
The reason why Maeda was anxious to identify himself was because he participated in organizing the prisoner of war rebellion and was severely suppressed by Zhao Zengfu, who quickly found out the person who organized the riot. Immediately after cutting off the heads of forty people, Maeda came forward, identified himself as a Japanese officer and demanded extradition back to Japan. The little devil is not stupid, he knows that it is useless to intercede and reason at this time, and the officer is crazy to kill people, so he has to honestly identify himself, in the hope of exchanging his identity for a life.
