After two years of development, Qin Yu used the capital loans he brought from the Eighth District to begin to absorb troops and expand his army.

At present, the total number of regular troops of the entire Sichuan Army, plus the local garrison regiments, security regiments, and logistics support troops in the four major cities, has exceeded 50,000, but this is only the amount of staff in the company, because Qin Yu also implemented a reserve system in Sichuan Prefecture, and many veterans laid off and new local reserve soldiers received fixed guarantee funds, and those who were not included in the company were not registered.

So now, except for the Sichuan Prefecture Division, other forces are not clear about how many soldiers there are and what kind of combat power they have.

Qin Yu set up a garrison and security regiment in the four major towns, with the intention of training new soldiers and garrisoning soldiers. Because he had fewer professional officers on his side, there were many soldiers and there were not enough generals. He could only wait for the eighth district’s returned officers to arrive at home, so that these soldiers could be filled in the regular troops in an instant, and quickly brought up several combat-capable teams.

Of course, this is a later story and will be mentioned in detail later.

According to the previous ideas, the two brigades of Daya and Xun Chengwei have been completely reorganized, namely the First Field Brigade under the Independent Division, with Daya as the brigade commander and the newly reorganized 121 mixed brigade, led by Xun Chengwei.

These two brigades are the absolute aces of the Sichuan Prefecture Group and are the combat troops that Qin Yu has high expectations. Nearly half of the military expenditure approved in the past two years has been used on them.

...

Xun Chengwei's 121 Mixed Brigade had a field group under him, which was also specially stationed on the border of Sichuan Prefecture. Therefore, Qin Yu immediately issued an order to him when he learned that his officer was killed by the Xingshan bandits.

After receiving the combat order, Xun Chengwei called Xue Zheng, the commander of the field roster, without any rush, and called: "Deploy the reconnaissance battalion, firepower battalion, and quickly move towards Xingshan. As soon as the troops here move, the helicopter of the reconnaissance battalion will take off and investigate me along the ridge lines on both sides of Xingshan. Before I arrive, your chief of staff will come up with a combat map."

"Yes!" Xue Zheng replied.

Five minutes later, three helicopters from the 121 Mixed Brigade took off and headed straight to the vicinity of Chencangkou.

...

Two hours later, Xingshan.

He Dajiang and all the bandits were drinking and playing with women. They didn't know that the Ba Lao was already cold and sold them as soon as possible. They didn't know that the Sichuan Mansion had already dispatched troops and the danger was coming quietly.

The top of the mountain is close to the left, and there is a very simple brick and tile house, which is Meng Xi's room.

The layout of the brick and tile house is very simple, with only two rooms. The house on the left is lived by a friend of Meng Xi, and his on the right is his.

There is no furniture in the cottage, but it is cleaned up very neatly. The cabinets on the kang are cleaned, some neat clothes are stacked on them, and some books are placed. Some cold water is sprinkled on the soil floor, so there is no dust.

Meng Xi was sitting on the kang at this moment, feeling a little nervous.

He was not a bandit, nor was he an old man who started his business with He Dajiang. Many people in the village didn't know what he did before, and they just saw for no reason that he had made suggestions by He Dajiang.

Meng Xi objected to the carjacking this time and advised He Dajiang many times, but the latter felt that he would not be able to gather people without money. In addition, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, and the ammunition and food on the mountain are almost out of food. If he doesn't get some money back, he will cause trouble if the bandit leader is not doing well.

Everyone gathered together, it was definitely not just for squatting in the mountains and forests, and was punished, and they sang the good things of brothers. They followed He Dajiang to seek wealth, profit, and to rush together. If the elder brothers can't even get food and wages, then who can still hang out with him?

He Dajiang knew this, so he had to work hard to solve the current New Year, and to win over people first. But Meng Xi didn't think so. He felt that He Dajiang's direction was offside. Burning, killing, looting was not a long-term solution, especially not doing such a desperate matter at home. If you want to settle down, you must have a stable way to make money, otherwise it will not last long by relying on these activities.

But He Dajiang felt that Meng Xi was thinking too far, and even more, he felt that if he wanted to get out of here these days, someone had to have a gun. He often used Qin Yu as an example, saying that Qin Laohei had taken more than 2,000 people from Songjiang and took root in Sichuan Mansion. Now he also has more than 2,000 people, and he wanted to imitate Qin Yu, do something in Chencangkou, and do something big.

The two have different opinions, and Meng Xi has no actual power, so she can only watch him make trouble.

After the train was robbed, Meng Xi saw He Dajiang killing the officers of the Sichuan Mansion, and the noise in the car was too loud, so he had a premonition.

After sitting on the kang for more than an hour, Meng Xi still didn't receive a call from He Dachuan. He felt a little vague and immediately called his friend He Qiang.

"Hello?"

"...I asked you to inquire about Lao Ba's affairs. Have you done it?" Meng Xi asked.

"I'm asking, but this kid hasn't come home, so there are few people we know here." He Qiang pondered for a while and said, "Don't worry, I'll ask again."

"Try to be as fast as possible."

"good."

After saying that, the two ended the call.

Meng Xi turned his head and looked out the window. While he was thinking about whether to give He Dachuan a call, his cell phone suddenly rang again.

"Hello?"

"The eighth Lao was arrested in Yangnan's gambling stall, and it's unclear who did it." He Dachuan's voice sounded.

Meng Xi was stunned for a long time, then stood up and said, "It's over, something happened to him."

"Can you?" He Dachuan asked with some uncertainty.

"Something must have happened." Meng Xi paused: "You go and tell your brother immediately."

"Where are you?" He Dachuan asked.

"I'll go to the alert post and something big might happen."

"good."

"This is how it comes first."

Meng Xi hurriedly hung up the phone, turned around and rushed to the cabinet on the kang, took out a pack of cash from it, put on his clothes, and without saying a word, he turned around and ran out.

Something must have happened to Lao Ba. Sichuan Mansion has garrison troops on the sidelines. So what will happen next? Thinking about it with your heels can understand it.

Meng Xi followed the mountain top path and ran down while dialing He Qiang's phone number, preparing to notify him to escape.

“Buzz!”

At this moment, a helicopter formation suddenly appeared on the top of the mountain.

Meng Xi held the phone, looked at the sky, and cursed in an instant: "Damn it! I'm done with the air, it's over."

Helicopter formation, in cabin No. 1.

"Report, we have entered the designated position." The officer in the co-pilot shouted with the intercom.

...

Around Xingshan, within the temporary brigade of the 121 Mixed Brigade, the staff of the Field Regiment, took his own drawing and said: "The scale of the bandits on the mountain is much larger than we imagined. Judging from the pictures given by the helicopter, there are at least 1,500 people living in the center of this village group. If you want to go up the mountain, there are only four small roads to go, and vehicles cannot pass."

Xun Chengwei glanced at the staff officer's drawings and asked in surprise: "What do these marked red dots mean? Is this mountain still fuckingly divided the garrison zone?"

"Yes." The staff officer nodded immediately and replied: "There are four-in-two, one-in-one, and a standard mountain garrison layout on the mountain. There are four fortifications on the side of the mountain, and there are guard posts. They garrison along the four in-mountain roads, and even simple air defense bunkers are built... and pushing to the top of the mountain about fifty meters. There are two main roads on both sides of the mountain, and there are two garrison areas that replenish firepower. The fortifications are also excavated in complete form."
