Chapter 212 Imperial Army
Xingjiazhuang.
"Captain Li, Captain Li."
Political Commissar Zhao Gang urgently called out to Li Yunlong who was walking out of the house.
Hearing this, Li Yunlong could only stop and ordered Zhang Dabiao who was standing beside him: "Go and gather the first battalion first."
"Yes."
Zhang Dabiao nodded, turned and left the yard.
"Commissar, I'm busy here! If you have anything to say, please wait until I come back."
Li Yunlong said a few perfunctory words and wanted to leave.
"Wait a moment."
Zhao Gang stepped forward quickly and blocked Li Yunlong's way: "No, if you don't explain clearly today, I won't let you leave."
"Hey... okay."
Li Yunlong had no choice but to confess honestly: "I just received the news."
"A group of bandits recruited by the Japanese are going to Zhouzhuang to rob food this afternoon. I have to stop them."
"That's it!"
Zhao Gang nodded and stepped aside: "Then you go ahead. I'll write a report and submit it to the brigade headquarters."
"Hey, Old Zhao is really nice."
Li Yunlong patted Zhao Gang on the shoulder and walked out quickly.
"hehe."
Looking at Li Yunlong leaving, Zhao Gang smiled and shook his head, then walked into the room and began drafting a telegram.
Twenty minutes later, Zhao Gang walked out of the room, handed the telegram to the signalman, then mounted his horse and chased in the direction Li Yunlong left.
"Captain Li, Captain Li."
Looking at Zhao Gang catching up, Li Yunlong asked impatiently: "How did you catch up? Didn't we agree that I'll take care of military affairs and you'll take care of life?"
"We are going to fight, not to play."
"Captain Li."
Zhao Gang criticized seriously: "This is purely military thinking. The Chairman has already criticized it."
"Stop the fucking bullshit."
Li Yunlong cursed and waved his hand impatiently: "Forget it, if you want to follow me, just follow me!"
"hehe."
Zhao Gang smiled slightly, rode forward, and came to Li Yunlong's side: "Captain Li, I wonder how you plan to fight this time?"
"Hey, are you testing me?"
Li Yunlong snorted coldly and did not answer. He tapped the horse's butt with the whip and sped up the pace.
Seeing this, Zhao Gang smiled faintly, slowed down, and came to the end of the team.
An hour later, the first battalion of the new regiment arrived in Zhouzhuang.
"Captain Li, you are here!"
Zhouzhuang guerrillas, captain Zhou Ergou held Li Yunlong's hands and said excitedly.
"Hahaha, I set out as soon as you gave me the message. How's it going? Am I not late?"
Li Yunlong asked with a smile.
"No, our people have been monitoring Wu Daba."
Tuesday the dog shook his head and explained.
"That's good."
Li Yunlong thought for a moment and said, "How about this? You take the guerrillas and take the people to the nearby mountains to hide for a while. You can come back after we finish fighting."
"Row."
Knowing the strength of the new group, Zhou Ergou did not hesitate and immediately returned to the village to arrange for the villagers to go up the mountain.
"Zhang Dabiao, have the first company enter the village to defend the front, and the second and third companies will ambush on both sides."
"Yes."
Zhang Dabiao saluted, walked towards the three company commanders and began to arrange specific tasks.
"Captain Li, what's going on?"
Seeing that Li Yunlong had arranged the combat mission, Zhao Gang came closer and asked.
Li Yunlong glanced at Zhao Gang, thought about it and started to explain.
"A month ago, the brigade commander issued an order for us to recruit the bandits near our base and eliminate those who disobeyed."
"Some bandits have consciences. They are the kind of thieves who have their own moral principles. It is easy for us to recruit them."
"But some bandits refused to change and joined the Japanese Imperial Army."
"After they had the support of the Japanese, they began to exploit the people in an even more vicious way."
"Wu Daba is the kind of bandit who joined the Imperial Army."
"The Japanese appointed him as a regiment commander and gave him a few broken guns. He robbed people every day. Today, I finally caught him."
"I see."
Zhao Gang nodded and said seriously: "These are bandits who do all kinds of evil and bully the people in the village. They deserve to be killed!"
"Haha, Political Commissar Zhao also has this murderous side!"
Li Yunlong couldn't help but tease Zhao Gang when he saw his hatred for evil.
"I always thought that all pale-faced scholars were weak!"
"What are you talking about, Captain Li?"
Zhao Gang said dissatisfiedly: "Anyone with a conscience will get angry when encountering such a bandit."
"Yes Yes Yes."
Li Yunlong smiled and echoed, waving his hand: "Then please, Political Commissar Zhao, who has a conscience, stay in the village first and don't disturb us in the battle."
"alright."
Zhao Gang nodded and said with concern: "Be careful."
"Don't worry, the bullet that can kill me hasn't been produced yet!"
Li Yunlong said indifferently.
....................
One p.m.
A group of Imperial Army soldiers wearing light yellow uniforms, led by two officers, appeared at the entrance of Zhouzhuang Village.
"The boss!"
"Snapped."
A soldier of the Imperial Army ran up to an officer on horseback and was slapped in the face as soon as he opened his mouth.
"Fuck it, how many times have I told you to call the captain!"
Wu Daba held the horsewhip and cursed.
"Yes, Captain, Deputy Captain."
The Imperial Army covered his face and cried, "Report to the commander, there are guerrillas guarding the entrance to Zhouzhuang Village, they won't let us in."
"Guerrillas?"
The deputy head of the regiment felt nervous and raised his telescope to look. He was relieved to see that the people blocking the entrance of the village were all wearing coarse cloth clothes.
However, to be on the safe side, the deputy head of the group suggested to Wu Daba: "Captain, why don't you come back next time!"
"This time the Zhouzhuang guerrillas are well prepared. If we are held up by them, it will be difficult to deal with the new regiment when they arrive."
"Afraid of a ball."
Wu Daba said nonchalantly: "They are just some guerrillas! Let's move quickly and finish the battle within 20 minutes."
"30 minutes of looting, the whole process takes less than an hour. I don't believe that Li Yunlong can fly over here."
"But this is the defense zone of the New 1st Regiment after all. You know Li Yunlong, he is very cunning and has wiped out many bandit families on the nearby hills."
The deputy head said a little worriedly.
"You're a fucking coward."
Wu Daba cursed and looked at the Imperial Army in front of him: "Er Gouzi, go and lead the brothers to attack."
"Tell the brothers that apart from the food that is handed over to the Imperial Army, the rest of the captured grain will be divided into 30% and 70%."
"Okay, Captain. I'll go right away."
Er Gouzi was a little scared when he heard what the deputy captain said.
As a result, when he heard what Wu Daba said, he forgot what the New 1st Regiment was, and happily came to the crowd of the Imperial Army to announce the good news.
"Oh, great, let's go brothers!!"
With cheers, the Imperial Army, holding their Type 38 rifles, rushed towards Zhouzhuang like mad dogs.
"Don't be impatient, Elm Cannon, fire the shotgun first."
The company commander hid in the corner and whispered orders to his subordinates.
"We understand, Captain, don't worry!"
A soldier was holding a spear and waving it in a pretentious manner.
"See? Those are the guerrillas!"
The two commanders and deputy commanders who were not far away were relieved when they saw that the firepower at the village entrance was sparse and there were long-haired swords waving.
He waved his hand and rode forward, ready to wait for the team to disperse the guerrillas so that he could be the first to rush in and loot the good stuff.
