"I wonder what this officer's name is?" Li Shun jumped out of the carriage and saluted Liu Yangyang with a smile on his face. There was no tension or dagger hidden in his smile as Liu Yangyang imagined. "I am Li Shun, the steward of the president of the Mengcheng Chamber of Commerce.
When the master learned that there were anti-Japanese soldiers coming from afar, he asked me to bring some food to work for the army, hoping that the military master would accept it."
Don't hit someone with a smiling face, this is a Chinese proverb, and it is also the method used by veterans like Li Shun to deal with people. It's a pity that he is facing Liu Yangyang, a veteran ruffian. Liu Yangyang is a person who does not play according to common sense.
, This is not only because he has not read books, but also because he is a captain officer of the 88th Division. This is his pride, so when facing people like Li Shun, Liu Yangyang has always been self-centered. And he
It was Li Linge who wanted to make things so big, not a little guy like Li Shun.
"Nine pounds, please collect all the things. Since so many carriages have arrived, it's time to load all the corpses into the carriages. Let's go to Mengcheng. I want to ask the county magistrate here. The Mengcheng militia are bandits.
He's still a robber. If you can't give me a satisfactory answer, I'll kill all these bastards." Liu Yangyang ignored Li Shun, who was smiling, and just asked Jiujin and Lao Xu to count and receive the food and things.
, and directly left Li Shunliang aside.
"Go back and tell your master that these are the people of the 88th National Division. They are here to pick up the stragglers and reorganize the army to go north to Xuzhou." Seeing Liu Yangyang ignoring Li Shun, Zhu Shouwen, who didn't know when he got together, carefully followed Li Shun.
Shun muttered, and motioned to Li Shun to look at the corpses of the corpses. "Those are all the corpses beaten to death by the Zhou brothers. Go back and tell your master that this matter may not be easy to handle."
As soon as Li Shun came over, he actually saw the corpses that had been moved from the fields by the defeated soldiers, but what he saw was only the corpses of refugees, and those naked corpses had been placed on the carriage. At this moment, Li Shun
Zhu Shouwen pointed out that when he saw the corpses of those assassins, he was also frightened. Although the militia group commanded by the Zhou brothers had hundreds of people, it did not mean that they could kill the perpetrators in broad daylight.
If the other party really takes this as an argument, the Li family, which has always supported the militia, will naturally be involved.
"Platoon leader Zhu, where are the Zhou brothers?" Li Shun looked around, but saw the group members kneeling in a pile with guns pointed at them. The two Zhou brothers did not see it. Li Shun couldn't help but feel a little confused.
Surprisingly. Although the Zhou brothers are not very popular, and often rely on the Li family's connections to run rampant in Mengcheng, the Zhou brothers, like Masan, listen to Li Linge's words. Nowadays, if you have a gun, you will be the grass-headed king.
The Mengcheng Vigilante Group is the Li family's apparent strength. Compared with those members of the group who have become prisoners, Li Shun naturally needs to find the Zhou brothers first to find out the cause of the matter.
"It's right here, didn't you see it?" Zhu Shouwen curled his lips and pointed in the direction for Li Shun. Li Shun was confused and looked in the direction of Zhu Shouwen's curled lips. At this moment, the familiar figures of the Zhou brothers
They were mixed in with those corpses like yours. "Don't look at me. When I arrived, they had already died. I heard that they were beaten to death by his soldiers because they wanted to attack Chief Liu." Zhu Shouwen was a little gloating.
The Li family in Mengcheng always looked up at people with their nostrils, especially the Zhou brothers. All of them died here. It was fake that Zhu Shouwen was not happy.
After learning that the Zhou brothers had been beaten to death by this gang of thieves, and also saw the corpses of the Zhou brothers, Li Shun was shocked and could not continue to get close to Liu Yangyang. He got on the carriage and returned to Mengcheng. He wanted to
He hurried to report the matter to Li Linge. "Platoon Commander Zhu, please give us a way. Let's go to Mengcheng County House." When the furious Li Shun disappeared, Liu deliberately ignored him.
The goat then ordered the movement to Mengcheng, and even pulled Zhu Shouwen, who wanted to escape first, to lead the way.
"This Li Linge has been prosperous in Mengcheng for so many years. He should not be an easy person to get along with. As the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot overwhelm local snakes. We are outsiders. To them, we are just dragons crossing the river. Wait until we meet Li Linge.
It's better to be careful." Although Liu Yangyang acted arrogantly, he was not someone who could not be persuaded. Lu Yongqiang, who had not yet recovered from his injury, tried hard to persuade Liu Yangyang, who also nodded in agreement.
However, Lu Yong wanted him to be Xiaofu Di for the time being, but Liu Yangyang couldn't do it.
"When I first joined the 88th Division, a boy relied on his uncle in the Military and Political Department to go to the platoon where I was staying all day long to find trouble. At the beginning, I also thought about settling the matter, but it was just
We're just making ends meet, so there's no point in making an enemy of someone with a background like him." Liu Yangyang threw a cigarette to Lu Yong, lit the cigarette in his own mouth and took a deep breath before saying with a smile, "But later on, that kid got more and more advanced.
The more arrogant you are, the more you ask me to fetch him water to wash his feet every day. Damn this bullshit. I will already be a second lieutenant at that time. Can I fetch water to wash his feet for a little corporal?"
Lu Yong and the wounded Sichuan soldiers around him heard what Liu Yang said was interesting, and they all cheered up and listened attentively to Liu Yang's words, "Later, I found a suitable opportunity and beat this kid hard.
Duan, guess what happened? That kid was a coward. He ran back to his uncle to complain. As a result, the people sent by his uncle were pushed back by our group leader, and the kid was kicked out of 88
Division, my second lieutenant is still a second lieutenant, but he can no longer stay in the guard platoon, but was directly transferred to the current second company."
"So, people, sometimes you need to fight. You can't just tolerate everything. We people have become defeated soldiers now, and military positions may have long ceased to exist.
Since he has nothing, why are you afraid of him?" Liu Yangyang, holding a cigarette in his mouth, glanced at Lu Yong, "Li Linge has been prosperous in Mengcheng for many years, so he is now a porcelain, and we have nothing.
Do you think he is willing to use porcelain against a worthless earthen pot? If it were me, I would definitely not touch the earthen pot with porcelain, because it is not cost-effective."
"You mean, we have been holding on to the fact that the Mengcheng militia shot and killed the ***, so that Li Linge did not dare to retaliate against us while we were in Mengcheng?" Lu Yong heard the key point from Liu Yangyang's words.
.Yes, Liu Yangyang never showed any weakness from the beginning. His main reliance was the corpses in the field. No matter what excuses Li Linge used to find trouble, he talked about Liu Yangyang shooting the Zhou brothers and arresting the group members.
Liu Yangyang could use those corpses as evidence to refute any matter.
Although Liu Yangyang came to Mengcheng in the name of the 88th Division, the troops of the 88th Division crossing the river had already been transferred somewhere unknown by the Chairman to rest, and Liu Yangyang was originally an officer of the 88th Division.
These things are recorded in the military register. Even if Li Linge contacted the 88th Division with his hands and eyes, he could not blame Liu Yangyang, because the regiment commander and battalion commander who commanded Liu Yangyang had already left in Shanghai, and Xie Bo was at this time
They had already arrived in Chongqing, and no one could prove that Liu Yangyang did not receive the order from the 88th Division to gather the defeated troops.
Shooting a gunman is a serious crime, and the Zhou brothers shot and killed five gunmen at once. Not to mention the fact that they set up roadblocks to collect passing money privately, it was their move to wait for an opportunity to sneak attack on Liu Yangyang.
It was enough for Liu Yangyang, an active-duty officer in the army's direct line, to kill them several times. "Doctor Tian said that Li Linge is a local tiger in Mengcheng. What we have to do now is to knock on the mountain to shock the tiger and not lure the tiger out to wander around. We are in Mengcheng."
It's not safe to stay." With such a good handle, Liu Yangyang naturally planned to stay in Mengcheng for a few more days, and he had to wait until everyone's injuries got better before continuing on the road.
"Then you must be careful, lest you miss the tiger and get bitten by it instead." Knowing that Liu Yangyang is not a person who changes his mind easily, Lu Yong felt a little tired after talking so much, and then lay down on the carriage.
He closed his eyes and rested his mind, ignoring Liu Yangyang's nagging. The bored Liu Yangyang turned to look at Tang Cheng. Tang Cheng wanted to ride into the city like Jiu Jin, but his leg was injured. Liu Yangyang and
Lao Xu just let him sit on the carriage. Tang Cheng was sulking and naturally turned a blind eye to Liu Yangyang.
"This kid's wings have grown hard and he wants to rebel." Liu Yangyang laughed and cursed, but he was not angry with Tang Cheng in his heart. Tang Cheng had always performed very well after leaving Nanjing, especially when dealing with Zhou Bing.
Full of the domineering spirit of the 88th Division. Liu Yangyang didn’t expect to teach Tangcheng everything he knew, but the world is like this. It’s better to kill than to be killed. Tangcheng now is different from what he learned in Shanghai a few months ago.
The Tangcheng we have seen is already very different.
Liu Yangyang was leisurely, but Li Linge in Meng City smashed several pieces of his favorite porcelain in succession. The news brought back by the housekeeper Li Shun made Li Linge furious. From the moment Li Linge became anxious, he tried his best to make friends with powerful people and sold cigarettes every time.
He would use part of the money he earned to curry favor with those in power. It was precisely because of this that the Li family relied on its huge connections and was known as a landless tiger in Mengcheng.
In Li Linge's decades of career, he has never encountered times when he was provoked or made trouble, but this was the first time that someone who blatantly killed him came to his door like today. "Prepare another big gift.
, I want to go out of the city to meet with these daring Qiu Ba for a while, to see whether I, a local snake, is more powerful or these group of dragons crossing the river are arrogant." After thinking carefully for a while, Li Linge decided to go out and meet with Chief Liu himself.
Although the current situation has reached a time when it is not appropriate to be at odds with the government, the name of the Li family in Mengcheng does not allow Li Linge to swallow this breath and not react. He wants these outsiders to know that this is Mengcheng, and Mengcheng belongs to him, Li Linge.
