Chapter Seventy-One: The Bandit's Mind

Gai Tianjiu shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Where do I have three thousand people, alas, I have only been a bandit for generations, but I am also tired." There are also reasons for taking refuge in adults. ”

"I want to hear about it." Wang Maoru said.

It turned out that since Wang Maoru supported 300 rifles, Gai Tianjiu took people back to his lair on the front line of the Great Wall, and fought with the Mongolian bandits who occupied his lair, and the old brother lost half, but also recaptured the lair. Later, Gai Tianjiu co-opted a few small groups of bandits in the nearby hills, and took advantage of the increase in the number of refugees fleeing outside the customs in the summer, and forcibly brought in refugees to expand into the bandit team, although the number rose to 1,000 people, but the old brothers only had more than 100, and the combat effectiveness was not as good as before.

Several times with the Mongolian bandits and the official army, the old brothers died one by one, Gai Tian was sad for a long time, one day a Japanese military adviser said to him, we have been bandits for generations, although we are happy and happy, but it is a rootless weed, no matter how big we are, the big one hundred and eight generals of Liangshan and one hundred thousand Liangshan thieves? The 100,000 heroes of Liangshan have still been recruited, the king, let's change into an official body as soon as possible, so that we can give future generations a good reputation in the future. If it was according to Gai Tianjiu's temper before, he would have shot the military advisor a long time ago, but over the years, three of his four sons have died, and the whereabouts of his two daughters are unknown.

Gai Tianjiu is also a sober-minded person, he summoned the old brothers in the cottage, the military advisor Xu Laofu, the remaining three heavenly kings Baibaotian, the black wolf and the horse three swords, the iron toad and the Tota Heavenly King that Wang Maoru saw last time were killed by the bandits in the battle to recapture the lair. After a few people discussed, they thought that they couldn't go all the way to the black, and many of the bandits outside the gate recruited An, just like Zhang Zuolin, Zhang Huijing, and Feng Delin, all of whom were born as bandits, and now they have all become overlords. But on who to take refuge, the people below still had a dispute, the black wolf said to take refuge in Guangning Mansion (now Beizhen City, Liaoning Province), not far from here, Ma Sandao said that he wanted to take refuge in the first division of the army living in Chengde, but Bai Baotian said that Baoding took refuge in Cao Kun's third town, Gai Tianjiu listened to their arguments and quarrels, slapped the table angrily, and said: "Don't talk, listen to the military division." Xu Lao Fu is serious, he has read poetry and books in the Spring and Autumn Period, and he has seen things farther, and analyzed: "These three are not good, although Cao Kun is powerful, but the third division has never had a record of collecting and compiling chivalrous bandits. We are not familiar with Cai Chengxun of the first division, and the first division has suppressed bandits and us a few times before, although the commander of the first division was He Zonglian at that time, but the generals below have not changed, and those who should hold grudges still have grudges. As for Zhang Zuolin, it is even more impossible, he is a black-hearted person, although his clever methods of capturing Du Lisan seem to be impressive, but he also takes advantage of brotherly love, turning his face and denying the master. These three people are all in full swing, let's go, it's the icing on the cake, it's nothing. Wouldn't it be better if we could send charcoal in the snow? ”

The three of them hurriedly asked who to send, Xu Laofu winked at Gai Tianjiu, and Gai Tianjiu said that it was Wang Maoru, who had sworn his brother last time, and now he was the Hulunbuir Protector. Other people knew that Wang Maoru was very generous with them last time, and he was bold and bold, and they always thought that he was just a rich businessman, but they didn't expect that now he has become the head of a place, but this Hulunbuir is the base camp of the Mongolian bandit rebels at this time, although Wang Maoru is famous but not real.

Xu Laofu persuaded again, now that he is fighting and fighting, what is he fighting, it is money and guns, Wang Mao is rich, he gave himself 300 rifles last time, which shows that he has guns, has money and guns, and can recruit troops and horses at any time, now he is short of people, let's take people to vote, which is exactly what he wants, and he needs talents now, let's go to vote and we are not afraid of being hacked to repay the merits.

So, Gai Tianjiu came to Beijing, and finally found Wang Maoru after some inquiry. Gai Tianjiu first made a temptation, and when he saw that Wang Maoru was sincere to him, he told him in detail truthfully.

Wang Maoru was overjoyed, and he hospitably entertained Gai Tianjiu, greeted everyone, and introduced him, and naturally the expressions of the officers under him were different. This bandit is a bandit after all, to say that these officers from the regular military academy don't mind, it is nonsense, but he trusts He Rufei, the director of internal affairs, and takes Gai Tianjiu's hand and says: "I have long known the name of Gai Tianwang, you know, your head is worth 100,000 taels of silver in the bandits, haha, who is so valuable in our Republic of China?" King Gai, you are a scorpion poop - the only one. ”

Gai Tianjiu scratched his bald head, laughed, and said, "I didn't expect my head to be so valuable, haha, haha." ”

Li Pinxian said with a smile: "Fortunately, the King of Heaven, you abandon the darkness and go to the official road, brother, think about it, if you are among the bandits again, if someone cuts off your head with bad intentions one day, you go to all parties to ask for rewards." Now that you have joined the official army, you are a member of the government, who dares to touch you. Gai Tianjiu nodded yes, indicating that he would start to bring people to vote.

The 1,000 bandit soldiers who have covered the sky for a long time have been running and dying for half a year, and they seem to have unlimited scenery, but in fact there are less than 500 people. After coming to the Huairou barracks, the old and weak were eliminated, and only 300 people remained, and Wang Maoru gave him a number to supplement the first battalion, which was not among the War Department. He Rufei recruited soldiers from Zhili, eating, drinking, and wearing, and wore black armed uniforms one by one, but he was envious of others. Within a few days, word of mouth spread that the army here was the forbidden army of the president, and many people took the initiative to join the army, He Rufei recruited 800 people effortlessly, and now the whole brigade is 3,300 people, which is really a full brigade.

However, Wang Maoru's subordinates are also quite mixed, including the men and horses of his own Huaxing factory and the garrison brigade of the original flying team, as well as the recruits sent by the Beijing government, as well as those from the old army, some new local recruits, and bandits who have just surrendered. After consulting with everyone, he believed that in order to improve combat effectiveness, it was necessary to disperse these people, reorganize and retrain the troops, and then the whole brigade underwent a month's military training.

Naturally, Gai Tianjiu and others are not among them, they are bandits, and it is inevitable that they will be wary, if they merge their men and horses, it will cause Gai Tianjiu and others to be unhappy. But since he served Wang Maoru, the appearance is always done, and Xu Laofu, the military advisor who has covered the sky for a long time, entered the staff office as a staff officer, and Bai Baotian, a logistics officer, entered the general affairs office as a general affairs officer, responsible for handling the army's food and salary audit. This Baibaotian is a native of Shanxi, with the shrewdness and small calculations of Shanxi people, as soon as he took over the accounts, he was startled, went back and ran to Gai Tianjiu, without saying anything, first drank three sips of wine, and looked at Gai Tianjiu's black wolf, Ma Sandao and Xu Laofu were stunned, and even asked what was the matter.

Bai Baotian looked around at the four of them and asked, "Do you know how much the 11th Garrison Brigade of our army costs a month, don't skip words?" The three of them said they didn't know, but Ma Sandao said: "The brothers got a lot of settling-in expenses, what's the matter?" A lot of don't skip words. Bai Baotian sighed: "In the past, we always thought that the world was so big in Beizhili, and it would be great to grab a vote of a few thousand taels of silver, and our border army garrison brigade only spent five thousand taels of silver a month for eating, drinking, and Lasa, and the military salary was distributed, and it was fifteen thousand taels of silver a month, and the bits and pieces were not counted in the account. ”
