Liu Tuanzuo, who was still conducting military exercises on the border of Guangyuan, received the telegram from the front. His first order was: hide the silver winter melons and hide the Xian Da Yang.
The second order is: It’s not good to hide them all. Leave half a box and go down the mountain with great fanfare tomorrow!
It was not that he was reluctant to give the brothers money, but that a certain group member did not expect that this bandit would be so fat. Liu Lang felt that his heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys ached when he thought of the 10% of the seizure that he had promised to be given to Liu Cunhou, the warlord of northern Sichuan.
The half-box of cash that was brought down the mountain by the recruit company with great fanfare was only five or six thousand. If it was divided into 10%, it would only be five or six hundred. Ling Hong felt that Mr. Liu couldn't win over him and asked for it, so he might as well offer cash at a low price.
When the three new recruits and nearly a thousand prisoners passed through Mr. Liu's defense line in northern Sichuan, they generously and readily threw out nearly 200 old guns and nearly a hundred red-tasseled guns, which were regarded as dividends from the crossing to suppress the bandits.
.
"Good job." Liu Lang happily expressed his praise to the three recruit company commanders who were sullen and dared not smile.
Obviously, not only was he able to deal with the 1,800 bandits cleanly, but more importantly, the two hundred broken guns were so good that they could be equipped with a company's weapons! Liu must have exerted no effort at all.
The old man should be smiling from ear to ear right now!
"Damn it, Liu Lang, that bastard, is so dishonest in his work. He gave me two hundred broken guns just to get rid of me. Is this sending me away to be a beggar?" Liu Lang, who was in the Liu family's mansion in Beichuan County, thought that he couldn't close his eyes to laughter.
The loud-mouthed Mr. Liu was indeed grinning from ear to ear at the moment and was cursing loudly.
"Commander, should we send someone to chase them back? Damn it, I heard that Yellow Tiger made a lot of silver winter melons." A man wearing a black military uniform with no visible rank also had a look of indignation on his face.
And greed that no one else can see.
"Okay! Then you go after him and I'll give you a regiment of troops." Mr. Liu, who was stroking his bare head, glanced at his confidant and said while holding back his anger.
"Commander, one regiment is not enough! Use your subordinates to observe their equipment. If you want to stop them, you will need at least three regiments." The man hurriedly suggested.
"Son of a turtle, you need three regiments from three companies, but Liu Lang has more than ten companies, where do you want me to find more than ten regiments for you?" Liu Cunhou directed his anger at this blind man.
On subordinates.
He doesn’t slap people in the face, he doesn’t criticize people, but he still raises this issue even though he knows that he can’t beat you. What the hell do you mean by hitting people in the face and exposing others’ shortcomings? If this confidant is not in charge of the most elite of his subordinates.
As a group, Liu Cunhou went up to greet them with his big mouth.
"Hey, Liu Wenhui, this grandnephew, is going to be such a bad guy! In less than three months, he trained such an elite army, 1,800 bandits! He just didn't last for a day, forget it, at least he kept some
Love, 200 guns are enough for us to equip another company." Liu Cunhou sighed and settled the matter.
Facing Liu Lang's fist, Liu Cunhou swallowed the loss in one gulp.
Liu Lang, on the other hand, didn't take Mr. Liu's unhappiness to heart at all. If it weren't for his inaction, how could a bandit army have been rampant in the local area for ten years, and even eventually grew to nearly 2,000 people? How could it be possible?
Not because he was afraid of irritating other warlords in Sichuan Province at this time when the war in Sichuan Province was about to begin, Liu Lang had already gone north with his whole regiment to drive away this warlord who only liked to collect taxes and did not care about the lives of the people he ruled.
Liu Lang is currently taking stock of the status of the recruit assessment.
The recruit assessment lasted for five days in total. The three companies of Liu Dazhu and Linghong who were responsible for the suppression were the farthest away from Black Dragon Mountain, but those who came back were not the last. One day after they came back, the last company of recruits returned dusty.
Seeing that the other nine companies were leisurely waiting for him, the recruit company commander who was responsible for exterminating more than 500 bandits in an area 80 miles away turned as red as a big red cloth.
However, Liu Lang was not harsh. He did not set a time to exterminate the bandits before sending troops. What he wanted to look at was the acceptable casualties, the performance of the recruits, and the performance of the chief officers of each recruit company. As for the number of seizures, it was only secondary. Although
That is also very important for the independent group.
The results were brilliant. In this assessment, the ten recruit companies wiped out more than 4,000 bandits in six locations, killed 1,800 bandits in the crossfire, and captured 2,400 bandits. Incidentally...
The bandits in China are different from the forty thieves who like to hunt bachelors in the desert. There are also many who marry wives and have children, and the number has reached an astonishing more than 600 people. Looking at this group of ragged women and children, Liu Lang's eyes widened.
Straight up.
This is totally a waste of time and I didn't catch the rabbit, so I got into a lot of trouble.
Fortunately, there were still a bunch of seizures that made Liu Lang feel a little better. The bandits who can eat large pieces of meat and drink alcohol are not as poor as they dress. Putting aside the huge seizures from Huang Qingyuan, the richest bandit emperor in northern Sichuan, the remaining five
In the bandits' den, the recruits also found a total of 200,000 yuan worth of wealth, as well as broken guns, red tassels, large swords and countless swords. The main thing was that there were no people in these things and they were too lazy to count.
As for ammunition, the bandits have always been drunk now and never have the habit of storing arms. The few bullets they carry are basically in stock. Liu Lang doesn't mind it at all, and collects a bunch of old guns and bullets.
They were prepared to be distributed to the escort teams in each village, which just solved the problem of guns and ammunition for training reserve troops, which was an unexpected blessing.
Light and darkness have always shared all the time of mankind, and the results have been good, but this kind of battle, which can hardly be called a battle, has also tested many problems.
Compared with the number of more than 4,000 armed bandits who were defeated in advantageous terrain, the number of casualties suffered by the independent regiment's new recruit company was actually not large. Ten people were killed, 26 were seriously injured, and 58 were slightly injured. The figures were almost all the officers of the independent regiment except Liu Lang.
These were completely acceptable figures, but Liu Lang still frowned.
Because they did not know that a war with the Japanese invaders was about to begin, and 1,700 recruits would be the protagonists of this war. What worried Liu Lang was that this was still under the condition that the equipment could completely crush the opponent. If they encountered
What about the Japanese invaders whose equipment and willpower are no weaker than those of the Independent Regiment or even stronger? What kind of casualties will they suffer?
However, Liu Lang still believes that after this battle, the new recruits have lost their youth and gradually transformed into qualified soldiers. When they fight the Japanese invaders in half a year, they should all be considered veterans. At that time, the independent regiment can be regarded as a qualified soldier.
The last elite division.
After approving the subsidy report of Yu Xiancheng of NT$500 for each dead recruit and NT$100 for each injured soldier, Liu Lang continued to issue the list of meritorious personnel.
In this recruit assessment, many high-quality recruits emerged. There was the recruit machine gun shooter Ma Xiaode who had excellent psychological quality and knocked down the opponent with heavy machine gun fire. The recruit shooter Ma Xiaode had six rounds of bullets to kill 4 bandits, two of which were bandit leaders.
Niu Er, there was also recruit Zhen Cola who threw a grenade more than seventy feet to accurately kill the opponent's machine gun firepower point...
In addition, recruits such as Cai Dadao and Wang Santong, who made great contributions to enemy reconnaissance, and super shooter Mo Xiaomao, who suppressed 400 bandits with a single sniper rifle, led a team of men to climb up the cliff.
After destroying the bandit's lair, he joined Shan Ying, the newest soldier of the independent regiment. The ten recruits became the envy of the 1,700 recruits.
Not only did they receive a reward of 100 yuan, and their military ranks were directly promoted to upper class soldiers, but the most enviable thing is that their military ranks will be worn by Liu Lang, the highest officer of the independent regiment.
At least Niu Er didn't close his mouth the whole night after hearing the news, although he always slept with his mouth wide open when he slept.
