Spring has arrived in March, and the weeds in the wild fields have secretly sprouted their little green heads. The strength accumulated over the winter has given them the energy to break out of the ground. The weeds with young leaves that can’t wait to sprout have filled the vast fields outside the city.
Putting on new clothes. Unknowingly, Tangcheng and the others have been in Mengcheng for three months. Tangcheng has experienced too many things from the initial impatience to the current stability. Tangcheng now is no longer what it was in the beginning.
When I came to Mengcheng, I was so wary of everyone.
Horse riding consumes too much time and energy in Tang Cheng. Liu Yangyang no longer complains that Tang Cheng is extremely annoying. Every day when Tang Cheng opens his eyes, he will appear in the stable in the backyard or in the wild fields outside the city. Liu Yangyang doesn't even know Tang Cheng's face at all.
We rarely see each other, so there is no room for complaints. It’s just that Tang Cheng is never alone when riding out of the city. Either Jiu Jin is accompanying him, or Lao Xu is following him. As usual, Tang Cheng has had breakfast early.
He took the big green horse and Jiu Jin out of the military camp and went for a walk in the fields outside the city.
"This brat runs very fast." When he learned that Tang Cheng had gone out to walk his horse again, Liu Yangyang laughed and cursed and rode a mare to the Mengcheng County House. News of the Japanese troops going south and north to attack Anhui did not come out every day.
Again, amidst Ge Kunshan's daily fear, spring finally came to Mengcheng, and the Japanese army that was rumored to be very evil never appeared. As the war lasted for a long time, Ge Kunshan's tense heart gradually relaxed.
.
Compared with the laxity of Li Linge and Ge Kunshan, Liu Yangyang, who trained the Mengcheng militia, tightened his nerves. Liu Yangyang, who had fought with the Japanese army, knew the Japanese army's methods very well. To relax at this time would be to risk his own life.
The feeling of leaving it to God to control is extremely uncomfortable for Liu Yangyang. The supplies and materials needed by the militia are jointly borne by the Mengcheng Chamber of Commerce and the county government. The supplies are delivered to the military camp on time every week, but this time
The supplies were already three days late, and Liu Yangyang had to go to the county government in person to inquire about the matter.
This is not the first time Liu Yangyang has come to Mengcheng County, but the last time he came here was when Ge Kunshan actually took office as the head of Mengcheng County. It has been almost two months since then. "Liu Company Commander, this is my fault. During this period,
I'm so busy." Seeing Liu Yangyang coming to the door in person, Ge Kunshan hurriedly came out of his office to greet him. He knew in his heart that Liu Yangyang was here for him, but he didn't know how to deal with it.
Regarding this matter, could it be said directly that the merchants are unwilling to pay any more?
Ge Kunshan and Li Linge have been friends for many years, but their friendship is much thinner in the face of interests and power, especially when Ge Kunshan learns that Li Linge has a team of servants who are also being trained by Liu Yange. Ge Kunshan is also in Mengcheng
People, but he can't compare to Li Linge's control of Mengcheng. Recruiting Tuan Ding is just so that he can better control Mengcheng. Otherwise, he would just rely on the dozen or so policemen who can't do anything. Ge Kunshan wants to achieve his goal
The dream is simply more difficult than reaching the sky.
Ge Kunshan also knew about Li Linge's original fast gun team, but in Ge Kunshan's eyes, the fast gun team composed of Jianghu people was slightly stronger than ordinary people, but the servant team that Liu Yangyang helped Li Linge train was different. 30
There is no comparison between a servant who uses rifles and light machine guns and several Jianghu people who can only use short guns. First of all, Liu Yangyang, an army officer who has experienced life and death battles, is the biggest variable. Ge Kunshan does not believe that he was born in the 88th Division.
Liu Yangyang is a piece of shit.
"County Magistrate Ge, the supplies for the militia have not been delivered this week. Did something happen in the county? And when will the regiment member you transferred last time return to the military camp to continue training?" took the hand from Ge Kunshan.
Putting the tea cup aside, Liu Yangyang directly explained the purpose of his visit. In addition to asking about supplies, he also wanted to get back the regiment members Ge Kunshan transferred from the military camp last time.
Ge Kunshan did not directly answer Liu Yangyang's question, but walked back to his seat, took out a cigarette and lit one, "Liu Company Commander, I won't hide it from you anymore, the supplies are handled by people from the Chamber of Commerce.
Things, these short-sighted guys thought that the Japanese army would not come. Since the Japanese army would not come, they felt that it was not necessary to spend so much money to support those regiments. In fact, since the last time, the supplies provided by the Chamber of Commerce have been cut off.
The county government spent money to purchase the food, and part of the money has not yet been paid." Ge Kunshan's outspokenness made Liu Yangyang feel a little uneasy. He originally thought that Ge Kunshan would prevaricate him.
Liu Yangyang, who has been staying in the military camp, also knows a little bit about the dispute between Ge Kunshan and Li Linge. It is just for power and profit. If not for this, I am afraid Liu Yangyang will not appear here today, because
He had a plan that just needed such an opportunity. "What should we do? The food in the military camp is about to bottom out. If no supplies are sent to the military camp within three days, your regiment members will be hungry." Liu Yangyang
Knowing that Ge Kunshan had used half of the county government's money to purchase weapons and ammunition, it was simply impossible for him to spend money to buy food at this time.
"Well, Captain Liu, can you hold on for a few more days? I'll talk to the people from the Chamber of Commerce. If it doesn't work, I can make an IOU with them in the name of the county government. As long as the food can be sent to the military camp, I can give my official hat to
They are all fine, but the training of the militia cannot be stopped." Hearing that Liu Yangyang meant to stop the training of the militia, Ge Kunshan became anxious. The Mengcheng militia was his hope to establish a foothold here. If the militia stopped training,
All his painstaking efforts and hard work were in vain.
Liu Yangyang spread his hands towards Ge Kunshan and pretended to be embarrassed, "County Magistrate Ge, it's not that I don't want to help you, but you have also seen that the regiment members train so much every day. If they don't have enough food,
How can they have the energy and energy to continue training? It's okay to lack weapons and ammunition, but food is indispensable. Without food and supplies, even if you invite German instructors, I'm afraid they won't be able to do this job."
Liu Yangyang's pretense of evasion made Ge Kunshan a little annoyed. Although Liu Yangyang was an officer, a small captain really didn't play a role in front of Ge Kunshan. If he hadn't taken a fancy to Liu Yangyang and had some abilities, I'm afraid Ge Kunshan
Kunshan didn't even have the time to pay Liu Yangyang a look. Holding back his anger, Ge Kunshan still said to Liu Yangyang pleasantly, "Liu Company Commander, do you think this will work? You go back and continue to train those regiments. I will go to the Chamber of Commerce right away."
I will send people to deliver the first batch of food to the military camp at noon today at the latest."
The decisiveness shown by Ge Kunshan made Liu Yangyang couldn't help but click his tongue in his heart, thinking that if you, a bullshit county magistrate, hadn't scraped the land too hard, how could the people from the Mengcheng Chamber of Commerce have opposed you. "Okay,
With your words, it's settled, then I'll go back first." Liu Yangyang grabbed the teacup, raised his head, poured the cold tea into his mouth, then stood up and left. Ge Kunshan saw that Liu Yangyang finally left.
, couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, not wanting Liu Yangyang, who had already reached the door, to suddenly turn around and come back again.
"County Magistrate Ge, I was so happy that I almost forgot about another thing." Liu Yangyang hit his head seemingly in annoyance, "When will you transfer those regiment members I mentioned just now who were transferred by you?"
They returned it to me. They are not even considered recruits now. You'd better let them receive training with others." Liu Yangyang's words made Ge Kunshan's suppressed anger rise again. The Mengcheng militia was Ge Kunshan's.
Yes, why did Liu Yangyang's words mean that he belonged to Liu Yangyang?
"Well, I know about this. The situation is not very good recently. Several groups of bandits have appeared around Mengcheng. I have transferred those bandits to explore the traces of bandits around Mengcheng. If bandits really come to Mengcheng, here
The people of Mengcheng will suffer." Ge Kunshan did not disclose the specific locations of the regiments to Liu Yangyang, but spoke to Liu Yangang in an official tone, thinking about the people of Mengcheng. "You train the remaining regiments first.
Well, I have my own opinion on this matter. The militia is supposed to protect the people of Mengcheng."
"Are there any bandits?" Liu Yangyang sat down again with a curious look on his face, "Does that mean the militia will be mobilized to fight the bandits? The recruits who have not experienced the battlefield are no different from ordinary people. If they are really little devils,
We are here in Mengcheng. If you want to use these guys who have never seen blood to defend Mengcheng, it will not work at all. It is best to let them see what killing is like in advance, so as not to lose their lives in vain when they encounter little devils in the future."
"Fight with the bandits?" Liu Yangyang's suggestion moved Ge Kunshan's heart. Li Linge instigated the merchants to stop delivering supplies and food to the military camp. This was largely because the merchants did not trust the militia. If Mengcheng
The vigilante group has gained a reputation and prestige, and I believe those merchants may change their views. The most important thing is that my prestige as the county magistrate among the people will increase a lot.
"War is not only about killing people, but also getting supplies and money." Seeing that Ge Kunshan was already a little interested, Liu Yangyang, who struck while the iron was hot, offered another reason that Ge Kunshan couldn't refuse. He could also make money by fighting. This was Ge Kunshan's intention.
Kunshan has never heard of it before. In the third year of Xuantong, he served as the artillery battalion commander of the First Division of the Jiangsu-Zhejiang Allied Forces and he never actually went to the battlefield. Even in the subsequent rebellion against Yuan and the Northern Expedition, Ge Kunshan never experienced a real battlefield.
, so what Liu Yangyang said was simply fantasy to him.
"County Magistrate Ge, think about it, what's the most popular thing in the bandit's den?" Liu Yangyang, who saw the clue in Ge Kunshan's eyes, came closer and continued to seduce, "It's money. What bandits love most is to save money and save money to buy things."
Food, wine, and weapons and ammunition. Now that the war is in chaos, where can they buy weapons and ammunition? So, as long as we can find the bandit's lair and destroy it directly, the money saved by the bandit will be ours, and we can buy food for the militia.
If the money for food and supplies is already out, there is no need for your dignified county magistrate and those merchants to beg for supplies in a low voice."
