The 28th Regiment quickly entered combat mode. The soldiers held guns in their hands and the bullets were already pushed into the chambers.
Seeing thick smoke rising from Wangzhuang, Ding Wei subconsciously thought it was the enemy coming to sweep away the enemy, and his expression became very serious. The soldiers of the 28th Regiment also looked as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
Under the leadership of Ding Wei, the 28th Regiment quickly approached Wangzhuang.
When he was 500 meters away from Wangzhuang, Ding Wei used his eagle eye skill to look around. He could not see any enemies in the village. He could only see several villagers kneeling and holding people on the ground crying.
Seeing this scene, Ding Wei didn't move forward. He took a step back and thought, what if this was a bait deliberately left by the enemy?
Ding Wei, who was finally evacuated from the enemy's encirclement, did not take it lightly because of the abnormality.
Under Ding Wei's order, the three battalions dispersed and surrounded Wangzhuang.
It wasn't until they were close to a hundred meters that Ding Wei didn't notice the danger, so he gave the order again, and the whole group rushed into Wangzhuang together.
Seeing so many people suddenly pouring into the village, all the residents in the village were shocked.
In the end, it was an old man with a goatee who shouted several times in succession while leaning on a walking stick. The villagers gradually returned to normal and stood behind the old man.
Ding Wei frowned and observed Wangzhuang. The surrounding area looked like it had been looted, and the person lying on the ground was obviously dead.
"May I ask if this officer is from the Eighth Route Army?" Seeing what Ding Wei was wearing, the old man asked boldly.
Ding Wei nodded: "Yes, I am the 28th Regiment of the Eighth Route Army. I am the regiment leader Ding Wei. Old man, what exactly happened here?"
now.
Ding Wei was already sure that something had happened in Wangzhuang, and an unknown fire suddenly arose in his heart.
How could Ding Wei endure this when he encountered this on his first day here?
The soldiers of the 28th Regiment also looked angry when they saw the innocent villagers suffering.
"Sir, you are here!" The old man burst into tears when he heard this, and while wiping his tears, he told the story in detail.
This old man's surname is Wang Mingwei, and he is the head of Wangzhuang Village.
After the original garrison in Wangzhuang left, Wangzhuang was robbed by a group of bandits.
This group of bandits is also very famous in this area. They call themselves the Juying Village and claim to gather the heroes from all over the world.
In fact, they are just a group of bandits and hooligans who do all kinds of evil and mischief on a daily basis. They don't care which way you are going, and they dare to rob you as long as they encounter you.
They had come to Wangzhuang to rob several times before, but because of the presence of the former Eighth Route Army garrison, they were all driven away.
Over time, the two sides have accumulated deep conflicts.
Unexpectedly, these bandits took advantage of the Eighth Route Army's change of defense and the Wangzhuang base area was temporarily unprotected, so they wanted to come and rob them and avenge new and old grudges.
The result is naturally conceivable. The Wangzhuang villagers who lost their protection were no match for the ferocious bandits.
Not only was the family's grain storage looted, the leading bandit also threatened to ask the villagers of Wangzhuang to prepare 18 beautiful yellow-flowered girls and provide each household with 20 kilograms of grain.
Killing those people today is just a warning. If people and food are not seen tomorrow, they will directly massacre the village and flatten Wangzhuang.
After hearing what Village Chief Wang said, the soldiers of the 28th Regiment were excited and wanted to crush that shit Juying Village right away.
Ding Wei frowned, his eyes suddenly filled with anger.
Did the son-of-a-bitch bandit not look at the almanac when he went out and actually dared to come to his own place to rob?
Although Ding Wei didn't say anything, he was already filled with raging anger, and his arrogance actually happened to him.
These bandits are really old people who hang themselves because they think their life is too long.
"You son of a bitch! You're so damn arrogant!" Ma Han cursed angrily: "I have to kill these sons of bitches today!"
Zhang Long suppressed his anger and asked: "Village Chief Wang, you didn't say anything about our Eighth Route Army?"
Village Chief Wang wiped away his tears and said: "Tell me what they said. It doesn't matter if the Eighth Route Army is covering them. He has robbed Japanese people, so Wangzhuang can do the same!"
"What a fool! You're too arrogant!" Zhao Hu scolded, and immediately looked at Ding Wei: "Commander! Give the order quickly and lead your troops to destroy that bandit's den!"
Most of the soldiers of the 28th Regiment came from poor backgrounds and could not bear to see these villagers being bullied. Many soldiers secretly wiped away tears after hearing this.
"Captain! Take us there and fight!"
"Captain, give the order quickly!"
"Captain Ding! Why don't you speak?"
…
The soldiers looked at Ding Wei and shouted, asking for orders to capture Juying Village and avenge the villagers.
"What are you howling for? I can hear it!" Ding Wei shouted.
Ding Wei shouted angrily, and the soldiers of the 28th Regiment suddenly became quiet.
Immediately, Ding Wei looked at the village chief and said warmly: "Village Chief Wang, I will definitely help you avenge this!
The blood debts left by the bandits in Juyingzhai, I, Ding Wei, will definitely make them pay with blood! You can rest assured, with my 28th regiment here, no one can bully you, whether they are bandits or Japanese pirates!"
Hearing this, the villagers' faces suddenly showed expressions of excitement. Not to mention anything else, just seeing the group of soldiers behind Ding Wei gave them confidence.
"The 1st, 2nd and 3rd Battalions will help the villagers tidy up the village and bury the villagers first!" Ding Wei turned around and ordered.
"Yes!" The three battalion commanders immediately stepped forward to take the order.
"Village Chief Wang, where are those bandits?" Ding Wei said calmly: "Tell me now, and I will immediately lead my troops to destroy their stronghold!"
Now that he has decided to deal with this gang of bandits, Ding Wei has no reason to tolerate it and directly fights to eradicate this scourge as soon as possible.
Not only for Wangzhuang, but also for the people around him.
When Village Chief Wang heard this, he sobbed and told the details of Juying Village.
Juyingzhai occupies a hilltop 50 miles away from Wangzhuang. Cats usually live in the mountains. The bandit leader's name is Wang Datou.
As for firepower...
How much firepower can a group of bandits have? There can be at most a hundred or ten people, and all they hold are firearms such as old sleeves.
Just as Ding Wei expected, they were just mountain bandits, just bullying the defenseless people.
After hearing what Village Chief Wang said, Ding Wei nodded and comforted: "Old man, don't worry, I'll help you deal with the bandits in Juying Village!"
The words just fell.
Ding Wei heard a system prompt next to his ear.
"The system detects that the host is about to suppress the bandits."
"Choose 1, avoid fighting, and be rewarded with the title of Mountain King, and the amount of materials seized will increase by 1%."
"Note 1: If the host seizes 100 bullets, the final reward will be 101 bullets, and so on. If the whole number is insufficient, it will be rounded off."
"Note 2: There are no restrictions on material types, and they will be included in statistics as soon as they are seized."
"Choose 2, destroy the bandits and reward intermediate artillery skills.
"Note: Proficient in grenades and mortars, no need to fire within range, always hits the mark."
