Bai Shujie angrily reprimanded "Teacher Cai" in front of him, and the subtext was: "You don't have to act here with me, even if you have to send troops, Lao Tzu will kill those Russian devils who invaded our territory!" It is absolutely impossible to sacrifice the interests of the nation and fight your own people in turn! ”

He drove Ma Yi away, but the problem was not solved. Now that these people are here, they probably won't give up!

Back at the headquarters, Bai Shujie hurriedly called Sheng Zhiguo and said, "The people who notified you moved to spy on the group of people who entered Crouching Tiger Village just now. But don't interfere with their actions, let them do whatever they want, and see what they are for! ”

On July 10, 1929 (the 18th year of the Republic of China), Zhang Xueliang finally took over the Eastern Railway by force, and the war was about to break out!

On this day, Bai Shujie was pinching a cold sweat for Zhang Xueliang at the headquarters, and Sheng Zhiguo came to say: "Report to the detachment leader, that teacher Cai hasn't left yet." In the past six months or so, they have been visiting homes frequently. It's even better now, and I still run a night school on the square of the Guandi Temple. ”

Bai Shujie didn't think it was strange: "It's good to run a night school!" I don't have the time and space, otherwise I would have wanted to run a primary school or a middle school! ”

"What's good? He asked those villagers to resist donations and taxes! Sheng Zhiguo said in surprise: "Isn't this a rebellion?" ”

"Hugh is making a fuss!" Bai Shujie shook his head: "The bully landlords, local tyrants and inferior gentry are rich and unkind, so they should rebel!" ”

Sheng Zhiguo wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead: "No, he is mobilizing the villagers to rebel against us!" ”

"That's even better! We don't charge harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, how can we resist donations? Bai Shujie hahedaxiao: "If the villagers really rebel, it means that we are unpopular, and we deserve to be rebelled!" Leave him alone, let him do it! ”

Sheng Zhiguo asked in a low voice: "Is the militia training still going to be done that night?" ”

"Normal training can't be stopped, and you have to hurry." Bai Shujie said with a serious expression: "I heard that the number of villagers has quadrupled now, and the number of militia has also doubled. Isn't that so? ”

Sheng Zhiguo nodded and said, "Yes, the current militia has 1,630 people, and our old-fashioned weapons are not enough." Now the squad leader and above have no choice but to issue 38 rifles. If it weren't for our strict control, the number of militias would have been more than two thousand! Now it's all the soldiers of the artillery platoon training them to operate the artillery. ”

Bai Shujie thought for a while, and then said: "You inform me that after the autumn harvest this year, I will send them 20,000 rounds of ammunition and 100 shells for them to conduct live-fire training!" In addition, the logistics department was informed that last year's militia subsidy was 50 yuan, and this year it will be doubled! All families who join the armed militia will receive a subsidy of 100 yuan per family this year! ”

After Sheng Zhiguo left, Bai Shujie shook his head with a wry smile: "Damn, it's just that more than 10,000 homeless people were resettled, and they were organized to plant a little panicked." Could it be that Lao Tzu has become a landlord and an old fortune, and he will not be able to be revolutionized by the people? ”

Feeling bored, Bai Shujie took advantage of the night to leave the headquarters, wandered all the way to the square in front of the Guandi Temple, and stood in the shadow under a big tree to observe. The square is divided into two groups, and in the western corner is the militia training, and only the voice of the soldiers explains. A large crowd of people to the east gathered there, seemingly arguing over something.

Bai Shujie walked over slowly, and gradually understood, it turned out that Cao Fengxiang was debating with that "Teacher Cai".

"No matter what you say, your set is not easy to do in our Crouching Tiger Village!" Cao Fengxiang's voice kept coming into Bai Shujie's ears: "You said that you want to **, you want to revolt, and you can't say that you are unreasonable." The question is, where should we go**? This village was built by ourselves three years ago, is it ourselves and ourselves? ”

"You said you wanted to share the floating wealth, we were all going to starve to death three years ago, why don't you say these things? If it weren't for Gan Niangniang and Zhao Niangniang's relief, we would all starve to death! If Gan Niangniang and Zhao Niangniang had come three days late, we would have starved to death! They are our saviors, do you want us to take their lives? ”

"Besides, in the past two years or so, which of our families in Crouching Tiger Village has not had hundreds of oceans? If we go back to Shandong now, each family can buy dozens of acres of land! According to you, all the people in our village are landlords! ”

"Teacher Cai" was not angry, and still said bitterly: "Don't you be deceived by their little favors, they bought you when they gave you a little Chen Guzi porridge?" ”

"Fart!" Another old voice came out: "Gan Niangniang and Zhao Niangniang originally took out their own grain and distributed it to us. The number of heads is counted by ourselves, and each person has a pound of white flour, a pound of rice, two taels of salt, and two taels of bacon! That's two months' rations for Gan Niangniang and Zhao Niangniang's nursing home team! ”

"That's not to mention. After the beginning of spring that year, we were all gone. But I ran to many places nearby, but I couldn't find a job. I really couldn't live anymore, so we came here again to find Gan Niangniang. Gan Niangniang had no choice, not only gave us a year's food, but also bought us farm tools and built a house, which led to Wohu Village! ”

"That's it! We all fled from Kannai, and for thousands of miles along the way, no one or a single government helped us. Even if it's a mouthful of porridge, no one cares about us! If I hadn't heard that I could settle here, I would have died! I have money on hand now, so I let my son follow his mother to be a soldier! You let us **, do I go to war with my own son? Look back, my son is doing it over there! ”

"Alright, Mr. Cai! There's no need for you to stay with us! Cao Fengxiang's voice came again: "Not only do you know, but we also all know who Gan Niangniang is and what they want to do." Therefore, we all sent our sons out to be soldiers, just to follow Gan Niangniang and them to fight! ”

"I'm not afraid to tell you, I used to be the deputy battalion commander of the Northern Expeditionary Revolutionary Army!" The more Cao Fengxiang spoke, the more angry he became: "I became a deserter and fled here!" weishenme？ Those revolutionary armies today you fight me, tomorrow I will beat you! The unlucky ones are the common people! I'm gone! I'm going to stay here? Because Gan Niangniang has a kind! ”

"Only they treat the common people as human beings, and only they dare to do it with the little devils of the East! Whoever dares to touch Gan Niangniang's crooked thoughts, Lao Tzu will kill him first! Just last year, I heard that over there in Jinan, the little devils in the East killed a lot of ordinary people, what are you doing? weishenme is not going to beat the little devil back? ”

Listening to the simple language of these villagers, there were some tears in the corners of Bai Shujie's eyes. As long as you really give, you are not afraid that no one will support you. Before, he was worried about being revolutionized by others, but now, his heart is warm, and his mood has never been so comfortable! In the understanding of others, it is a great honor to die for the country!

Bai Shujie walked with unprecedented brisk steps and returned to his headquarters. What he is concerned about now is the Hou Zide cavalry battalion, which has been out for a month and a half, and there is no news yet.

In mid-August, they sent a telegram that Hou Zide's cavalry battalion had successively raided King De's Tianqiao Racecourse and Heishui Racecourse, and was pursued by more than 2,000 Banner Guards for thousands of miles. It took two months to get out of the track, and Zuihou headed southwest into the mountains.

In this big raid, the cavalry battalion brought back a total of 1,271 war horses, which are currently hidden in the mountains.

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is the beginning of September. Bai Shujie, who was eager to wear it, finally received a telegram from Hou Zide, and when he saw the content, he was dumbfounded!

It turned out that this guy led the team all the way north, and he had already arrived in the southwest mountainous area less than 100 miles away from Lake Bell! Bai Shujie immediately spread out the map and saw that this place was about 500 kilometers away from the Akinskoye station in Soviet Russia, and about 700 kilometers away from the transit station Chita railway station.

After thinking about it for three days, Bai Shujie couldn't make up his mind. Now the commander of the Soviet Russian army has been replaced by Blyukhel (Chinese name Galen), he is a Chinese expert. From the beginning of the formation of the National Revolutionary Army, he was Chiang's most trusted military adviser.

Now that they have passed, they can simply give Soviet Russia a bit. However, if the cavalry is directly sent to participate in the frontal battle, the few hundred people in the cavalry battalion will not be enough to stuff people's teeth. Since it is useless to participate in the battle head-on, Bai Shujie can only consider the sword going sideways.

After three days and three nights of hard thinking and meditation, Bai Shujie could not make up his mind on how to choose. It's not that there is no way to choose where to start, but that he is worried about how his brother will return safely. Zuihou thought that in history, Brigade Commander Han Guangdi and his two regiment commanders were killed in Zha Lai Nuoer, and finally made up his mind!

"Order: From the day the Hou Zide cavalry battalion received the order, it immediately chose a covert route and entered the line between Akinskoye and Chita, 500 kilometers northwest of Manchuria, with the first priority of blowing up the railway and paralyzing the Soviet and Russian transportation lines. If you have the chance, you can completely destroy both stations! Brothers: This is a national war, we should fight bravely and sacrifice at the expense of bloodshed! We look forward to your success! This order, Bai Shujie. ”

Yang Guihua wrote down the order with a solemn face, and then asked Bai Shujie to sign it, and then immediately sent it out.

The telegram was sent, and a long wait followed, six days in the blink of an eye. Late that night, Bai Shujie still didn't sleep on the map. Qiu Shufen came in with a telegram and said, "There is news from the front!" ”

The telegram said: At noon today, the cavalry battalion blew up more than 40 kilometers of railways 30 kilometers southeast of Akinskoye. Then an ambush was laid along the railway line and a platoon of Soviet Russian cavalry who came to inspect the railway was annihilated. Among the weapons seized was a machine gun with a disc feed on it, and the fire was very fierce.

After thinking about it for a while, Bai Shujie immediately said: "Order: You are fighting in the enemy territory, and safety is the priority. As for captured weapons, bring them back as much as possible without affecting the speed of the march, especially the kind of light machine guns. ”

After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
