After being on tight guard for two days, the expected Li Linge did not show up. Not only the Li family members did not show up, but even the people from Mengcheng County Government ignored Liu Yangyang and the others. This made Liu Yangyang, who was well prepared,
Some are confused. "What does this Li Linge want to do? Since his family is the dominant force in Mengcheng, why did he choose to settle the matter after suffering such a big loss? This seems to be somewhat different from the Li Linge we know.
"Liu Yangyang and Lu Yong were squatting in the yard, basking in the noon sun, and talking about Li Linge, who was silent.
Different from Liu Yangyang's strength, Lu Yong now only wants to eat for a few days and take good care of himself and his brothers, and then rush back to his hometown in Sichuan. As long as he returns home, no matter whether it is the National Government or the
Li Linge has nothing to do with them. "You have a boring temper. It's too frustrating to talk to you. I'll take a few people out for a walk." Seeing that Lu Yong was very moisturized by the sun, he felt depressed.
Liu Yangyang spit out the cigarette butts in his mouth and stood up to leave.
Liu Yangyang has been thinking about the checkpoint set up by the Mengcheng Vigilante Group outside the county. Although the people of the militia have been taught by him that they no longer dare to set up private checkpoints to collect tolls, but those wooden horse barriers are still left on the side of the road.
"Don't be lazy, kid. Doctor Tian just said you shouldn't exercise strenuously. He didn't tell you to lie down all day to gain weight and go out for a walk with me." Regardless of whether Tang Chengtong agreed or not, Liu Yangyang
He directly asked Jiu Jin to carry Tang Cheng onto the carriage, and then asked Zhang Yun to take a few people to follow him out of the barracks compound and headed straight for the city gate.
"I've been thinking about this Li Linge for the past two days. Normally, such a man with all his powers shouldn't bow his head to us, so I thought this old boy might be secretly thinking about some harm." Liu Yangxiang lay lazily on his back in the carriage.
Tang Cheng glanced at him. Although Tang Cheng didn't look at him, Liu Yangyang knew that Tang Cheng was listening to him. "There have been a lot of rout troops in the county in the past two days. Do you think we should also intercept some rout troops?"
When the soldiers come back, if this Li Linge is determined to do evil, we might as well have a way to protect ourselves, otherwise it will be a pity for our rich guns and ammunition."
Tang Cheng silently glanced sideways at Liu Yangyang. When he heard him talk about the checkpoint outside the city, Tang Cheng knew that Liu Yangyang was thinking about rebuilding the second company again. What he needed most to rebuild the army was naturally manpower, weapons and ammunition. Mengcheng
The weapons and ammunition of the militia and the Li family's quick rifle team are all locked in the compound. As long as Liu Yangyang has enough soldiers, he can immediately pull out a second company.
"Didn't we already agree to go to Sichuan? Why are we changing our minds now? You don't even know where the 88th Division is now. Besides, the 88th Division may have thought that you had died in Nanjing.
Your name has been erased from the roster. You rebuilt the Second Company. Where should we go?" Tangcheng designated Liu Yangyang as one who still wanted to return to the 88th Division, but the current situation did not allow them to consider this at all.
, thinking that they could not find where the 88th Division went after crossing the river.
Liu Yangyang laughed a few times, then lay down next to Tang Cheng, "I didn't say we wouldn't go to Sichuan. Didn't I just say that we were prepared to be wary of Li Linge's secret mischief? What do you think?
, this old boy must have something to do with this new division. We now only have about 40 people, and more than half of them are Sichuan soldiers who speak Sichuan dialect. No one will think that Captain Lu and others are from the 88th Division. This
If a new editor from Mengcheng County Government comes forward, we will be the ones who suffer in the end."
"But recruiting troops is not the answer. We only have that little money, and we still have to pay for Dr. Tian's medicine and treatment. So many people have to open their mouths to eat. If you bring dozens more people back, it's time for a strike at Lao Xu's place.
." Tang Cheng shook off Liu Yangyang's hand on his shoulder, then sat up and turned to look at Liu Yangyang, "Lao Xu said yesterday that the prices here are almost catching up with those in Nanjing. We 40-year-olds
It costs a lot of money for a few people to eat, drink and have sex every day. Do you really think that your ill-gotten gains can last a lifetime?"
Jiujin is suitable for guarding property, but he is not good at spending money to manage things. I don’t know how Liu Yangyang deceived the traditional Chinese medicine doctor Lao Xu. The middle-aged Lao Xu actually agreed to Liu Yangyang’s job as a bookkeeper. Liu Yangyang
He is a man who spends money more than he can think of, and he is very strong. Whenever Lao Xu gets angry, he can only complain to Tang Cheng, so Tang Cheng has a complete understanding of their current financial situation.
"30 people, I can get back 30 people at most." Liu Yangyang raised three fingers towards Tang Cheng, "We now have machine guns again, but without suitable machine gunners, you can't ask me to hold the machine gun and the little devil
Let's fight. Besides, there are wars everywhere now. Which army have you seen that still pays military salaries? Just take care of the food. I already asked Lao Xu before I came out. There is no problem at all for 30 more people. We are not going to
I can’t wait to leave Mengcheng.”
While Liu Yangyang was talking, he pursed his lips at Zhang Yun who was driving the car. Tangcheng's reaction was not too slow. He immediately guessed that Liu Yangyang's other intention in recruiting people was to be wary of Lu Yong and his group of Sichuan troops. He was wary of others.
Indispensable, this is what Liu Yangyang and Xie Bo once said, especially in times of war, the gold bars they snatched from the Li family's quick gun team were enough to kill Lu Yong and others.
What's more, the only three people who are devoted to Liu Yangyang are Tang Cheng and the others.
"Okay, since you have already asked Lao Xu, then there will be a maximum of 30 people." Tang Cheng nodded helplessly to Liu Yangyang. He also knew that Liu Yangyang was doing this to have the ability to protect himself. Once they and they
Lu Yong and the others had a falling out. At least they still had the manpower to make Lu Yong and the others surrender. When the militiamen guarding the city gate saw Liu Yangyang and his two carriages approaching, they immediately moved the horses away early and took the people in and out of the city gate.
The idle people waited far away and drove away.
Maybe Liu Yangyang's luck really came. Not far after they left the county, before they reached the checkpoint that day, a group of refugees and broken soldiers appeared far away on the road. "These guys are not bad, they have already become like this."
Now, there is still time to protect those refugees." Liu Yangyang stood on the carriage and looked far into the distance with the telescope he snatched from the Zhou brothers. What he was paying attention to was naturally the defeated soldiers among the refugees.
It's just that these broken soldiers have been walking on the wings and tail of the refugees. Anyone who has fought in the war can tell at a glance that these broken soldiers are marching like this to protect the refugees.
"Isn't this just right? You can just cut off these good-looking guys." Although he was wearing a military coat, Tang Cheng still felt chills. If he could go back and sleep in the warmth now,
On the wooden bed, it couldn't be better. Rolling his eyes at Tang Cheng, Liu Yangyang ignored Tang Cheng and just continued to observe the defeated soldiers with his binoculars. He hoped to see from their clothing that these defeated soldiers belonged to
What army is it from?
From the decorated military caps worn on the heads of the defeated soldiers, Liu Yangyang could already conclude that these guys were definitely not genuine ** troops, because the authentic ** troops he knew had long been issued German-style steel helmets, and *
The official troops of the Communist Party of China used Zhongzheng rifles for the first time, and they would still be carrying Hanyang-made rifles like these guys. "Let's wait here. I thought it would be interesting to look at the head of this group of defeated troops.
Guy." Liu Yangyang took out a cigarette and lit it, then sat on the carriage shaft and waited for the arrival of the refugees and defeated troops.
"Call your leader to come and talk. Let me tell you that there are people from the 88th Division here who have been ordered to collect the scattered soldiers and return them to the formation." The group of soldiers who broke up also arranged the leading soldiers and scouts to explore the way in front of the formation as in the marching drill.
, when one of the scouts appeared in front of Liu Yangyang anxiously, Liu Yangyang, who had a calm face, straightened up his posture and directly called the scout back to ask their leader to come over and talk.
Being able to protect a large group of refugees while retreating without forgetting to act in accordance with the marching regulations shows that these broken soldiers will definitely not be like a mass of scattered sand doing their own thing. There will definitely be a leader among them, even if it is a temporary leader.
"Hello, sir, Sergeant Yao Baolin of the Suzhou Security Regiment has come to report." After a short while, a strong-looking ** officer appeared in front of Liu Yangyang, but Yao Baolin with the rank of major was pinned on his collar.
But he said that he was just a small sergeant.
"The Suzhou security regiment was transferred to Shanghai to fight, and my company was left to guard our regiment's material warehouse. As a result, the battle in Shanghai failed, and our regiment was beaten to pieces. Later, the Japs continued to attack Suzhou, and our security regiment
The regiment was completely broken up. A group of us brothers gathered together to prepare for another fight with the Japs. As a result, the Japs had too many troops, so we had no choice but to retreat. There were Japs troops everywhere, and we had no choice.
There were places we could go, so we kept circling around Suzhou with the Japanese soldiers. Later, when we heard that Nanjing had also been defeated, we prepared to go to Hubei. We met these refugees on the way, so we protected them all the way here."
Although Yao Baolin didn't speak much, he could tell that this person was a majestic person with just a glance. Liu Yangyang wanted to draw him into his team. "Since you have said so much,
I won’t hide it from you. I am the company commander of the 2nd Company of the 1st Battalion of the 524th Regiment of the 88th Division. My company fought in Nanjing for half a month, and there were only three people left in the company. Before crossing the river, I had already fought with the 88th Division.
The division has lost contact. We are now with some people from the Sichuan Army. We are planning to go to Sichuan when our brothers' injuries are better. There are bandits everywhere now. As long as some of us have guns in our hands, we can just suppress the bandits along the way.
You can save a lot of money, do you have the courage to take your brothers and go to Sichuan with me?"
