Without any guarantee, even for twenty dollars, if you can't bear to go down the mountain to eat, drink, whore, and gamble, you will end up going up the mountain to become a bandit. If your hands are involved in a murder, and you hit the muzzle of this evil god,

That is the end of the world.

It is said that the autonomous region is well managed. Whether it is farming, forestry, animal husbandry, mining, metallurgy, building materials and other industries, it is very impressive. The people there are stable, marry and have children, have enough food and clothing, and have a secure life.

He is rigorous in running the army, and the new army is powerful in combat. The key is that this general is a heroic figure. If you follow him, you will have a future. As the tide rises, everything will be better, and maybe you can achieve great things in the future.

In the end, of the nearly 200 bandits who surrendered or were captured, only about 20 received bounties and travel expenses and went down the mountain, while the rest were willing to stay and join the autonomous region.

New Army officers such as Chen Tianhua and Chen Er were very happy and immediately arranged for logistics to prepare meals and drinks so that the gangsters, who had been without water and food for several days, had enough to eat and drink.

According to the report on the war against bandits, Li Xinghong's eastern and southern fronts are developing well, Chief of Staff Ji's western front is also going well, and now Chen Er's northern front, since they captured Laoshu Mountain, the bandit suppression situation is also very good.

Regarding the layout of the northern line, Chen Tianhua appropriately adjusted his strategy and decided to leave a platoon and about 40 people in Laoshu Mountain to assist Liao Yunpeng and his work team from the autonomous region to move in, carry out land reform, eradicate poppy cultivation, and prohibit smoking.

The gold and silver treasures in the cave vault were transferred by train to Meishan Town, the administrative center of the autonomous region, led by Gu Zhunian, deputy chief of the military investigation section, who led a detachment of the action squadron and a platoon of the assault battalion, totaling 80 people.

, placed in the underground vault of Fengzhong Bank Autonomous Region Branch for storage.

The food on the mountain is included in the unified distribution of military supplies and logistics for suppressing bandits.

One hundred and eighty of the former Laoshushan bandit gang surrendered or surrendered, leaving behind fifty young people who had been in the gang for a short time and had good military skills, and were enriched into the squads of the third and fourth companies of Chen Er's assault battalion.

and baggage troops.

The remaining 130 personnel were sent to Laoshushan Station and handed over to Dewey's railway police. They were transferred to the Second Assault Battalion of Song Xiaoniu, the autonomous region's base camp. He trained these people in military training and discipline, and then assigned them to the troops.

Militia and horse ranch.

Chen Er led the 3rd and 4th companies, as well as a mixed company of engineers and machine guns, to continue the activities on the northeastern front and sweep away the large and small gangs in this area.

Chen Tianhua was temporarily in the lumberyard of the bandit suppression headquarters. After Gu Zhunian completed the task of escorting gold and silver, he came to the headquarters to meet him. Then he planned to sweep along the northwest direction, around to the county seat, and then to Niutoushan in Maoxin.

Town, take a look at the Niutoushan Mining Area and inspect the production and operation conditions there.

…

It was late May in the thirty-first year of the reign of Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty.

Hengshan.

It is located in the eastern part of the Guangde Mountains, close to the southwest of a town called Taozhou in Guangde County. It is the only way to the county from the northern part of the mountains.

It is like a mountain lying horizontally, hence the name Hengshan. On the top and at the foot of the mountain, there were originally Mingjiao Zen Temple, Great Buddha Hall, Sanzhong Temple, Dragon King Temple and other ancient buildings, as well as places of interest such as the Sacrificial Battle Platform and Panluo Pavilion. Unfortunately, they were successively destroyed by gangs.

Chaotic and ruined a lot.

Hengshan Mountain is different from Laoshu Mountain. The vegetation here is lush and the pine forests are all over the mountain. It belongs to the boundary of virgin forest.

It is said that Hengshan also has a close connection with Zhu Yuanzhang, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, and was named "the most heroic mountain in the world" by Zhu Yuanzhang.

Departing from the bandit suppression headquarters in the lumber camp and heading to Guangde County, the mountain road stretches for several miles and passes through countless lofty mountains.

In late May, as the hot summer weather entered, drinking water was the most important thing. Chen Tianhua ordered the mules and horses to carry a lot of water. Not only people needed drinking water, but the war horses also needed it.

This special force has several units put together, including Fei Ge's escort team, Gu Zhunian's Military Investigation Section's First Action Team, a combat platoon from the First Assault Battalion that he temporarily commanded, and the base camp's communications platoon. There is one class, and there is also a logistics class.

In total, the number of troops reached more than 130. Gu Zhunian was temporarily appointed as the commander of this troops by Chen Tianhua.

On this long and narrow mountain road, the team formed a long snake formation. In addition to the cavalry team, there were also horse and mule carts carrying various materials.

Standing on the top of the mountain and looking down at Lin, it looks like a slender gray snake, with no head or tail visible in the dense forest.

This large-scale campaign to suppress bandits and clear the countryside also received support from the government, and the gangs became like rats on the street.

However, bandits are also rampant. They kill people and set fires everywhere. They threaten the mountain people not to cooperate with the new army and set up obstacles for the suppression of bandits.

"Paralyzed, do you still have any humanity at all? What a bunch of beasts!" Gu Zhunian, who was clearing the way, looked at the more than twenty corpses hanging at the entrance of the village and couldn't help but feel frightened and angry.

These people were old and young, men and women, and there were several children among them. They were all brutally tortured and then hung to death.

It is said that the village chief's family and the local clan chief's family were all wiped out.

Looking at the dead body, Chen Tianhua's heart felt like it was being cut by a knife.

An order is passed on. As long as you encounter those die-hards, they will be killed without mercy. Don't worry about bullets.

"Major General, our land reform team stationed in two mountain villages to the east was attacked by bandits near Hubao Mountain. More than a dozen team members were killed at one time, and the rest were trapped in a farm!" Someone in charge of communicating the order The post officer reported to Chen Tianhua.

"What, the bandits dare to attack the land reform team in the autonomous region, but where are the New Army troops who stayed behind?"

"A platoon responsible for guarding several villages was transferred away by the gangsters. Only one squad followed the land reform team, so they suffered a disaster!"

Chen Tianhua was shocked after hearing this. This trend cannot last forever. He ordered at the top of his lungs:

"Damn it, send out the base reserve team for reinforcements at full speed immediately, and at the same time order Li Xinghong's troops on the eastern front to carry out an outflank. Don't kill everyone, capture them all alive and ask which gangster is responsible for this. I need to take care of it!" "

He was really anxious this time.

The progress in suppressing bandits in the past three months has been so smooth that I have been laughing at the past experiences of the Qing army.

When the regular green camp entered the mountain range, it was said that it could not suppress the bandits, and was actually suppressed by the bandits. It was simply unbelievable.

Who would have thought that something like this would happen to his men, and the result would be the same, with dozens of people dying at once.

More people died than when he fought against Dragon King Peak. He stomped his feet in distress. Fortunately, this time it was not a shame, it was just a village.

This incident completely angered Chen Tianhua. This trend must be killed quickly, otherwise many gangs will follow suit.

He immediately issued strict orders to the commanders of the east, west, north and south lines:
Chapter completed!
