Signing in the Republic of China: starting from a foot patrol

Chapter 214

"Master Hong, there is Qipan Mountain in front of us, here we are!" one of his subordinates pointed to Qipan Mountain in the distance and shouted.

Hong Tianwu kicked him: "What are you shouting about, you bring Lin Hongfei here again."

"oh oh··"

Hearing the name Lin Hongfei, the subordinate shrank his neck subconsciously, showing a look of fear.

"Hurry up the mountain before they catch up!"

Immediately, more than 30 people surrounded Hong Tianwu and walked quickly towards Qipan Mountain.

Arriving at the foot of Qipan Mountain, Hong Tianwu looked around, and he who had been a little panicked at first showed a smile at this moment: "Hehe!"

The subordinate next to him asked puzzledly, "Master Hong, what are you laughing at?"

Hong Tianwu said with a smile: "I laughed at Lin Hongfei. How important is this Qipan Mountain, but he didn't station troops here to guard it."

"Let me leave more than 200 brothers here to support, otherwise, we will definitely die today!"

The subordinates flattered very attentively: "Master Hong, you are resourceful, just like Zhuge Liang in the Three Kingdoms."

"Yes, with you here, we will definitely be able to return to Songshan County, carry the flag and pull the team again, become bigger and stronger, and create greater glories!"

Amidst the sound of flattery, everyone was about to step up the mountain. One of his subordinates put his finger in his mouth and blew a loud whistle to inform the people on the mountain that Master Hong was coming.

However, the whistle in response did not sound quickly, and the entire Qipanshan Mountain was eerily quiet.

The battle in Jiangdu County made Hong Tianwu extremely sensitive, and he immediately said, "Hurry up, something is wrong!"

However, just as they turned around and were about to leave, a joking voice came from the mountain:

"It's all here, just stay and have lunch before leaving!"

In an instant, Hong Tianwu's face was as pale as snow, and he stood stiffly on the spot, his eyes full of despair.

At this moment, the Qipan Mountain was crowded with people, and black muzzles of guns appeared in the grass.

At that moment, Hong Tianwu and his men were like a group of roosters surrounded by hungry wolves.

As Hong Tianwu was tied tightly with the hemp rope, he closed his eyes in despair. Now he really wanted to slap himself a few big mouths. Why did he leave his good life in Songshan County and attack Jiangdu County when he was greedy? ?

Although he was captured, Hong Tianwu was not alone, because not long after, several leaders including "Little Yunchang" Qin Wanying and "Xiashanhu" Jin Xiong were also arrested in Qipanshan.

As soon as this group of people saw Hong Tianwu, they kept greeting Hong Tianwu's mother, aunt, aunt, aunt and even all his female relatives.

"Your surname is Hong, you fucking hurt me a lot!"

"If it weren't for you, I would still be eating hot and spicy food in the cottage!"

"Hong Tianwu, I honor your ancestors!"

Hong Tianwu didn't say anything, he didn't want to say anything more, it's come to this point, so what if he scolds back?

In the evening, Guo Lang led people to escort Hong Tianwu, Jin Xiong, and hundreds of prisoners of the Jiangbei Allied Defense Force back to the prisoner-of-war camp in the county seat.

As for some broken soldiers hiding among the people, Guo Lang and the others didn't bother to look for them one by one.

This task was entrusted to the people of the villages in the county. As long as a rout soldier could be captured alive and sent to a prisoner-of-war camp, a rout soldier would be paid 2 yuan.

Naturally, the common people got excited and took up soil guns, hoes, shovels, and dung forks to search all over the mountains and plains.

These rout soldiers were all from Songshan County, Leren County, Hui County and other places, and their accents were somewhat different from those in Jiangdu County.

So it's easy to hunt down.

Of course, some unlucky passers-by from these three areas were implicated innocently. Fortunately, interrogations will also be conducted in the prisoner-of-war camps, so there have been no unjust, false or wrong cases.

"The warrior of the Three Kingdoms is brave, and Zhao Zilong is the first!"

"Be a hero in front of the long board slope!"

"As well as Zhang Yide, wait on the Dangyang Bridge, there is a continuous clatter of thunder and thunder, and the bridge collapsed two or three times!"

"Scared off a million soldiers..."

Sunset on the west mountain, brilliant sunset

The soldiers of the Independence Regiment returned victorious, singing the military anthem "Brave Generals of the Three Kingdoms" in unison.

This is a very popular song in the Beiyang Army, and even during the entire period of the Republic of China, it was one of the most popular songs in the army.

In "Bright Sword", after the military band of the Temporary Seventh Division was captured by Li Yunlong, what they played to Li Yunlong was this song "Three Kingdoms Warriors".

Different from the high morale of the independent regiment returning from victory, in the middle of the road, hundreds of [Jiangbei Allied Defense Army] prisoners were tied up with hemp ropes to the upper part of their bodies, and they moved towards the county like walking corpses.

The eyes of these people are full of confusion, they don't know how the independent group will deal with themselves.

People like to judge others by themselves. When I think back to how I treated those ordinary people who handed over their family's money and property, deep fear appeared on the faces of these people.

Long before the arrival of the Jiangbei Allied Defense Force, Lin Hongfei selected five locations on the outskirts of the county seat three or four miles apart from each other, and then sent people to temporarily set up five prisoner-of-war camps.

The prisoners of the Jiangbei United Defense Force were held in five prisoner-of-war camps.

In addition to the soldiers of the independent regiment, guarding the prisoner-of-war camps also included militia groups composed of young and middle-aged men from various villages.

Because they can get priority enlistment rights by helping the independent regiment, so the young and middle-aged people are very concerned about this matter.

Without the urging of the officers, these young and middle-aged men patrolled the camp back and forth with spears and big knives. The prisoners were all locked in large wooden cages, allowing the young and middle-aged men to monitor 360 degrees without dead ends.

After the prisoners were locked up in the POW camp, Lin Hongfei did not start to deal with them.

Instead, they were starved for a day first, and then they were only given two bowls of rice porridge that was so thin that they could be poured out every day.

Five days later, all the prisoners were so hungry that their chests were pressed against their backs, let alone speaking, they were lying on the ground one by one like dead people, unable to move at all.

Hungry like this, naturally completely lost the ability to resist, extreme hunger, so that people lost all psychological defenses.

Once someone gave him a bite to eat, he could tell the story of three generations of his ancestors.

Under such conditions, the leaders of the [Jiangbei United Defense Force], large and small, who concealed their identities and hid among the captives, were identified one by one by other captives.

In order to avoid the collective escape of prisoners, the first step is to make the prisoners have no strength to do things.

The second step is to eradicate those who have prestige and status among the captives. Without the organization of these people, the captives will be a mess.

The third step is to develop a few small traitors among the captives. They usually make small reports when they have nothing to do, and then give him a piece of meat, half an egg or something as a reward.

It didn't take long for these captives to have no thought of resisting or escaping at all. The only thing they did every day was to lie in the wooden cage and wait for food.
