"Robbing things and beating people, you damn thing think you are a bandit!"
"The boss..."
"How many times have I told you not to call me the boss again!"
"...Captain, it's not right for me to hit someone, but that old guy opened his mouth and started to curse. I couldn't hold it back for a moment, so I gave him the butt of a gun!"
"What did you scold you for?"
"Call us bandits!"
"Then tell me, is it wrong to be scolded for holding a gun to ask for something?"
Wang Erzhu argued: "Captain, you don't know that the chief security officer is a landlord, and his family has all the money. His son is a policeman in the city, and all the good land in the village belongs to his family!"
"Landlord?"
Cao Yunfei turned around and said to Bao Changyi: "Political Commissar, how do you think this matter should be handled?"
Bao Changyi said: "You are the captain, you decide this matter."
Cao Yunfei thought for a while and said: "Didn't the higher-ups call for beating up local tyrants to divide their fields? Wang Erzhu was beating up a landlord..."
Bao Changyi said: "To allocate land to the local tyrants, it refers to those local tyrants and evil gentry who are unkind for the sake of wealth. The villagers in Baishatun all say that Bao Chang is a good man. Can the nature be the same? Besides, how do you explain asking for food from door to door?"
Cao Yunfei frowned and thought for a while, then said, "I know what to do!"
Bao Changyi said: "Tell me and listen."
"Follow the mountain rules!"
"What mountain rules?"
"Just leave it alone and make sure the villagers are satisfied!" Cao Yunfei ordered: "Monkey, take Wang Erzhu down and enforce the mountain rules!"
The monkey said: "Captain, how many blows?"
Cao Yunfei thought for a moment and said: "Twenty! Tell the executioner... comrade, if anyone dares to show mercy, don't blame me for being rude!"
"Yes!" Monkey and another team member pushed Wang Erzhu out.
Wang Erzhu knew what the mountain rules were and said repeatedly: "Captain, with twenty sticks, I will be disabled. Please spare me this time."
Cao Yunfei said with a straight face: "By ruining the reputation of the guerrillas, I have already given you an advantage by not shooting you!"
Only then did Bao Changyi understand what the so-called mountain rules meant, and he quickly said: "Captain Cao, I think we should follow the discipline of the army..."
Cao Yunfei waved his hand and said: "Give him a painless punishment that won't do anything. I'm just killing the chicken to show the monkey, letting everyone know what will happen if you break the rules!"
For a moment, Bao Changyi didn't know how to refute. Although the punishment was a bit excessive, considering that this was a sensitive period, it seemed understandable!
Otherwise, verbal criticism and education, as well as a few days of confinement, will hardly have a deterrent effect, especially those of Liu Hei's subordinates.
Cao Yunfei asked: "Political Commissar, will we be under the control of the Independent League from now on?"
Bao Changyi nodded and said: "In terms of establishment, it is a subordinate relationship. Captain Cao, the superiors have instructed that the focus of the detachment's future work is, first, to strengthen the ideological education of the team members, and second, to actively expand the number of troops!"
Cao Yunfei's eyes flashed and he said, "What's going on? There's going to be a big war?"
Bao Changyi said: "It's hard to say now. If we prepare in advance, if there is a fight in the future, we won't suffer too much!"
Cao Yunfei said with emotion: "Political Commissar Bao, your superiors made the wisest decision by asking you to be the political commissar! In the past, as soon as my eyes darkened, I would lead my brothers around like headless flies.
No goals at all!”
Bao Changyi smiled and said: "I'll correct you again, not brothers, but comrades!"
Cao Yunfei lightly slapped himself in the mouth and said, "I accept the punishment and won't eat tonight!"
"This time is a warning. It won't happen next time. Today is New Year's Eve. If you, the captain, don't come to the table, your comrades will definitely disagree."
"Okay, okay, I won't be an example next time, I won't be an example next time!"
Bao Changyi pointed to the plaque "Juyi Hall" on the wall and said: "This one has to be taken down too. Tomorrow I will write down the three major disciplines and eight points of attention and hang them on the wall."
Without saying a word, Cao Yunfei stepped on the stool and took off the plaque, picked up the ax and divided it into two by three strokes, split it into several pieces, and threw it into the furnace.
Bao Changyi smiled and said: "You are quite agile."
Cao Yunfei laughed and said: "I am impatient and can't wait until the New Year. By the way, the political commissar, the team always stays in the mountains. After a long time, the people really treat us as bandits!"
Bao Changyi said: "At the beginning of March, the team moved to the Dagu area, where poor people are concentrated and it will be easier to recruit troops."
"But we dress like a motley crew, can the people believe it?"
"This is not a problem. After the Chinese New Year, four hundred sets of military uniforms will be delivered."
"That's great……"
Before he finished speaking, two team members came in carrying Wang Erzhu.
If he is beaten with twenty sticks, he will need to stay in bed for at least a month.
"Do you know you are wrong?" Cao Yunfei asked.
Wang Erzhu endured the pain in his buttocks and hummed: "I know..."
Cao Yunfei said: "Go to Baishatun now, return the things you robbed, and apologize to the security chief in person!"
Wang Erzhu said with a grimace: "Captain, I'm like this, how can I get down the mountain?"
"I'll have someone carry you down the mountain!"
"...I've eaten both chickens, and I won't go back."
"When did you eat it?"
"You forgot, I brought you two chicken legs..."
Cao Yunfei recalled that this was indeed the case, and cursed: "Didn't you say you bought it? It made me make mistakes too!"
He rummaged through his body, took out a few pieces of ocean, threw them on the table with a clang, and said: "Take this money, bring some more food, and at least make up for the losses of the people! Go quickly, and wait a little longer.
Yes, it’s getting dark!”
The team members helped Wang Erzhu out of the team headquarters.
Cao Yunfei picked up the bowl on the table, drank half a bowl of water, wiped his mouth, and said, "My throat is filled with smoke! Political Commissar, what do you think of this approach?"
Bao Changyi nodded and said: "You handled it very well later. You were able to eliminate the negative effects in the shortest time and make the people more supportive of our party!"
"I don't know how to talk about big principles, but we have to be reasonable anyway!"
"Succinct and to the point, well said!"
"What...should?"
"Oh, concise and concise, this sentence means that the words are concise and the meaning is complete."
"Political Commissar, don't always mess around with me, a boss like me. I can't understand a word and I have to translate it again every time. It's so troublesome!"
Bao Changyi smiled, took out a dictionary from his arms, and said, "This is specially bought for you."
Cao Yunfei took the dictionary, flipped through it a few times, and said, "You want me to read the words?"
"You are the captain. As the team grows in the future, you will have to deal with some document exchanges between brother units. It won't hurt to have more cultural knowledge!"
"I know a lot of words, which is enough...who calls me?"
Cao Yunfei "escaped" from the team for one reason. He had no interest in reading and writing!
