213. Beggars resist Japan

Bai Shujie and they waited at the foot of the mountain for more than two hours, and suddenly a large group of torches came winding from the mountain. The leader is Zhao Sanbao, with two middle-aged men behind him, and a group of colorful dressed people called Huazi behind. Yes, it's all called Hanako!

"Report to the captain, this secret camp of ours was occupied by them, and they are known as anti-Japanese beggars to the outside world." After Zhao Sanbao saluted Bai Shujie, he flashed and let the two big men introduce: "This is called Xian Yu Tongwu, 34 years old this year. This one is called Wan Yiwen, 31 years old this year. There is also a person named Zhuang Xingguo in it, who did not come down because of the inconvenience of walking. ”

Bai Shujie was noncommittal, simply greeted Xian Yu Tongwu and Wan Yiwen, and then led the large army into the secret camp, and saw Wei Chong talking to a young man in a wheelchair, it should be Zhuang Xingguo.

After some introduction, Zhuang Xingguo, who was in a wheelchair, said something.

In the summer of the twelfth year of the Republic of China (1923), 19 people, including Xian Yu Tongwu, Wan Yiwen and Zhuang Xingguo, escaped from the Qianjinzhai Coal Mine at the risk of death. As a result, as soon as the barbed wire fence was turned out, it was discovered by a few small heads. Then dozens of little devil patrolmen and big and small bosses chased after each other, and they were forced to the edge of the cliff.

All of them were reluctant to go back to the mine, and they all chose to jump off the cliff. Sixteen of them fell to death on the spot, and only Xian Yu Tongwu, Wan Yiwen and Zhuang Xingguo still had one breath left.

At the bottom of the valley where they fell, a group of little beggars happened to pass by, so they carried the three of them out. Back to a ruined temple in Liuhezi, this is the base camp of the little beggars. Among them was an old beggar, a laborer who had escaped fifteen years earlier. When I was a child, I studied a little Chinese medicine with my grandfather, and finally saved the three of them.

Xian Yu Tongwu and Wan Yiwen are both from Cangzhou, Hebei Province, and have a martial arts foundation since childhood, and their vitality is stronger and more tenacious than ordinary people. After the old beggar's recuperation, he was restored to his original state. However, Zhuang Xingguo was so injured that he fell into a high paraplegic and lost consciousness from the waist down.

However, Zhuang Xingguo is a student of Fengtian and has a clever mind. Although partially paralyzed, he made a hand-cranked wheelchair from scrap wheels collected by beggars. In this way, Xian Yu Tongwu, Wan Yiwen, and Zhuang Xingguo became members of the beggar group.

Later, the old beggar died, and Xian Yu Tongwu, Wan Yiwen and Zhuang Xingguo became family members and continued to lead more than 30 little beggars. After the September 18 Incident, the entire South Manchurian Incident fell. The little devils occupied Benxi and established various maintenance associations, and the beggars' lives were almost unbearable.

Since last year, the little devils have asked the puppet Manchukuo to come forward to carry out "tax reform", and suddenly "created" a large number of beggars. Xian Yu Tongwu and their gang of beggars are more united, and there are more people who take refuge. This came and went, and there were more than 200 beggars! In other words, there are more than 300 beggars in the current Xiong Childling secret camp.

Weishenme "tax reform" will create beggars? That's a long story.

Because in addition to the "national tax" and "local tax" of the puppet Manchukuo, village dues, district dues, peasant association dues, Xiehe Volunteer and Brave Public Fees, and Ailu League fees were also levied. Local taxes and all kinds of apportionment taxes are taxed on land donations, business donations, miscellaneous donations, housing donations, grain, land, houses, and even births, deaths, and raising and slaughtering livestock. Cars, horses, cows, sheep, dogs, cats, chickens, and ducks are all registered for tax.

During the New Year's holidays, red and white and other things, you must also donate taxes, which is called banquet tax. According to the explanation of the maintenance association, if there is a dead person in your family, then you must invite others to dinner, so you have to pay the "banquet tax"! As for whether you invite someone to dinner or not, that's your own business, and you can't miss a penny of taxes.

If there is a dead person in the family, you must first pay taxes, otherwise you can't go into the ground! When Bai Shujie heard this, he almost fainted!

3.6 yuan for slaughtering a pig and 1.2 yuan for killing a chicken. Including women's haircuts, a monthly tax of 4 jiao; To make a backdo hairstyle, you have to pay a tax of 2 dimes. This is called the slaughter tax.

Women cut their hair and have to pay a slaughter tax! This is really unseen and unheard of, Bai Shujie has been a human being in two lifetimes, and today he finally opened his eyes! The little devils plundered the Chinese people, and they were so vicious that not killing them was not enough to make the people angry!

Is it enough for the little devil to do this? No! Far from it!

Salt is a necessity that is forced by the little devil to be a monopoly. But the purchase price they set was 1 cent and 100 catties! But the little devil sells it for 6 yuan and 100 catties! One in and one out, net profit 600 times!

In other words, the workers of the salt factory must hand over 600 catties of salt in order to exchange for 1 catty for their own home! If the salt worker takes the salt home without permission, he will have to cut it all over the house! As a result, the salt workers of the salt factory worked hard for a month, which was not enough to get a pound of salt for their families, so they had to become beggars!

Before the little devils came in, those who were engaged in small business originally relied on selling tofu, vegetables, fish, and seasonal fruits to support their families. But as soon as the little devil comes, he has to get a business license. It is not wrong to have unified management of certificates. The point is, a license fee of 15 oceans for a license!

Many people can't afford such an expensive fee. But these businessmen have no land, and as a result, they can only become beggars!

Being a beggar? You're beautiful!

If you want to beg legally, then okay, hurry up and get a permit! License, 6 bucks each! You don't have any money? That's better, send the coal mine!

Calling the heavens and the earth not spiritual, these beggars have no way to live. Xian Yu Tongwu, Wan Yiwen and Zhuang Xingguo combined, simply changed careers! Since the little devil won't let us be beggars, then we shouldn't be beggars. Directly change your career to be a robber, specializing in robbing things from little devils!

Is the little devil's thing so easy to grab? As a result, more than 100 people were killed by the little devils, and later they couldn't gain a foothold in the broken temple, so they drilled into the mountains and forests. After many twists and turns, they actually touched the Xiong Childling secret camp!

"Sir, we really don't mean anything else, let alone the idea of occupying the mountain and making a lock for the king." Zhuang Xingguo said: "These people really have no way to live, and they are not the kind of people who are lazy and lazy. To tell the truth, those who can join our beggar village have all been inspected by us, and they are definitely the right way to come. ”

Bai Shujie's chest was about to explode, where would there be half a word: "Brother, don't be nervous, we don't have to take back this secret camp when we come here." Since the brothers need a place to live here, this place will be yours from now on. We came here mainly because there are dozens of our brothers' tombs in the back mountain. They were all sacrificed to kill the little devils, so they came to pay their respects. ”

Zhuang Xingguo nodded and said: "We have all heard about the hoe team back then, and we also want to visit, but unfortunately we can't find the temple gate." This Captain Wei has already been introduced just now, sir, please rest assured, we will definitely take care of Haode in the future in the hero mound in the back mountain. If you violate this statement, the sky will thunder! ”

Bai Shujie saw that most of the beggars were empty-handed, and he didn't know how they robbed the little devils, so he asked: "This place is very close to Benxi, and the brothers are all eating together in this generation, what weapons do they usually have?" ”

Xian Yu Tongwu said: "We mainly smoke cold to rob those policemen who go out alone, and there are groups of lone little devils. We now have more than 240 people, and the little devil has made more than 20 rifles, but there are not many bullets. ”

"Three leopards, give them three boxes of Type 38 rifle bullets!" Bai Shujie pondered for a moment, and then said: "More than 20 rifles can also deal with a small scene, but it may still not work." By the way, what's going on in Liuhezi, do you know? ”

"I know this!" Wan Yiwen said: "The little devil has a class that lives there, mainly to protect the railway. By the way, find trouble with those who cross the railway, extortion and extortion are all evil. The point is that they have a machine gun, otherwise we would have robbed them a long time ago. ”

Bai Shujie immediately ordered: "Three leopards, take the two groups and these brothers out for a trip, and bring all the things in Liuhezi back." Remember, those who maintain the club also move back. There is no need to stay alive to maintain the president, just leave the name of the revenge team. It's still three hours until dawn, so go and get back quickly! ”

Zhao Sanbao took the people away, and the beggars had already packed up the original barracks. Xiao Lamei and Wang Xinlan took the lead in and communicated the situation on their side with Rehe. Then the rest of the fighters rested, and there was no nervousness at all that someone was going out to make trouble.

Zhuang Xingguo saw Bai Shujie looking at the map there like no one, so he asked worriedly: "Sir, I see that there were twenty people out just now, can you do a little devil in one class?" Although the two eldest brothers, Xian Yu Tongwu and Wan Yiwen, brought over more than a hundred brothers, they were all blind and useless. ”

Bai Shujie said without raising his head: "Brother Zhuang, there are up to 17 little devils in a class, one machine gun, one grenadier, and 10 rifles. If they can't, then I can't be blamed. As for your brothers, I asked them to move their things, and I didn't ask them to fight with the little devils. I estimate that the little devils and maintenance presidents of the two classes of Liuhezi and Shilihe have been eliminated, and those things should be dealt with by your brothers for a year and a half. ”

In fact, what he said in his heart was: The scouts personally selected by Lao Tzu are all selected from tens of thousands of soldiers. If you can't do a little devil one-on-one, then it's a fart fight. Just buy a piece of tofu and hit it to death, out of sight and out of mind, don't be embarrassed outside.

Zhuang Xingguo listened to Bai Shujie's words, and couldn't help but gasp in his heart: "I thought they would just take Liuhezi, but I didn't expect to win Shilihe in a row." Thirty or forty ferocious little devils, is it really so easy to take down? Could it be that the legend that the hoe team is all immortals, is it true? ”

In the area of Liuhezi and Shilihe, Bai Shujie is too familiar. When the incident first started, he was extremely hungry for the first time, and it was in this neighborhood that he openly robbed the arms train of the little devils. Not only did I grab it once, but I grabbed it three times before and after. It is more than 40 kilometers away from the secret camp in Xiong Yuling. If all is in order, we should be able to return by noon tomorrow.

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