Old man Wu sighed, turned around and pointed at the ragged helper, and said: "Master Sun, this man is the long-term worker of the old man's family. His name is A'er. He is in the silk and satin shop on the street in front.
Living. The silk and satin shop has not had any stock since last year. It is just two families living there to watch the shop, but...but just now, officers and soldiers broke into the shop, not only smashing things, but also robbing things, and...
...and also captured A'er's mother-in-law and his daughter... Mr. Sun, you are here to suppress bandits, you can't do this, you, you must make the decision for us."
Although the old man Wu was hesitant and hesitant when he spoke, Sun Youtai still clearly understood what the other party meant, and immediately his face became more and more gloomy. He said: "This is happening? It makes no sense. Have you ever seen those things?
What kind of uniforms do the officers and soldiers wear?”
Ah'er, who had bruises all over his body, gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, it's just an ordinary military uniform."
Sun Youtai asked impatiently: "I'm asking about the color, what color."
Ah Er then answered: "It's blue, a blue military uniform."
Sun Youtai had long expected that it was definitely not one of his men who could do such a thing. Although the Third Brigade was established not long ago, the training for the past six months has been extremely strict and military discipline has been attached great importance to. Furthermore, the Third Brigade has just arrived, so it should be more honest.
Yes, what's more, he remembered that all three battalions under his command were on the front line, and only people from the regiment headquarters were on the rear side.
Blue military uniforms are the uniforms of the Beiyang Army. The 14th Division and the 17th Division still maintain this color uniform. The third brigade is the Central Yang Army system, and the Central Yang Army uniforms are all new military uniforms in khaki color.
He himself also attaches great importance to military discipline, especially after the troops were promoted to the Central Yang Army designation. He believed that the Central Yang Army must be very different from the local troops and must completely change their minds to become the backbone of China's national defense. At this time, I heard
It is already intolerable to see soldiers treating ordinary people like this, robbing, extorting, smashing, and destroying. And traditional Chinese moral concepts cannot tolerate sexual intercourse with women. This is simply the biggest taboo in the military.
"Go, go and ask Captain Lin to come out." He ordered one of his subordinates with excitement.
After a while, the commander of the 17th Division hurried out.
"Master Sun, what happened?" Captain Lin asked in confusion.
Sun Youtai repeated exactly what Old Man Wu said just now, and asked very sternly how to deal with this matter. Now their government wants to quell civil unrest, not create civil unrest, and the officers and soldiers of the 17th Division simply
Like a group of bandits, no wonder the common people rose up!
After listening to Sun Youtai's words, Commander Lin had a very ugly face for a moment. On the one hand, he was dissatisfied with Sun Youtai for teaching him a lesson in the tone of a superior. After all, they were both commanders, so what's so great about the central yang army? On the other hand, he was also dissatisfied with the people in the city.
The chaotic situation was very helpless. He said calmly: "Master Sun, this matter is definitely not caused by my brothers. To be honest, among the five regiments under the Seventeenth Division, in addition to my fifty-seventh regiment, there are also many Sirs
In addition to the 58th Regiment, the remaining three regiments all have problems with military discipline. Our 57th Regiment and the 58th Regiment were led by Deputy Commander Li personally. The battles in the previous year were fought by the two of us.
Three regiments are taking the lead. The remaining three regiments are either recruited troops or temporary troops that have been recently expanded. The leaders of these regiments are not very good, let alone their subordinates."
Sun Youtai somewhat believed what Commander Lin said, because he had seen with his own eyes the situation of several regiments of the 17th Division in the past few days, not to mention that the two regiments of Commander Lin and Commander Xu were the first to enter the city, and Commander Xu
They will engage in street fighting with the militia in the west, while Commander Lin's troops will support the front line by the Suihe River.
"Old Lin, no matter whose army it is, such black sheep are absolutely undesirable. The reason why the civil unrest in Henan Province is getting bigger and bigger is not only because our officers and soldiers cannot suppress it effectively, but also because there are such black sheep that harm the people.
, driving the common people to a dead end. As the saying goes, to treat a disease, you must cure the root cause. If the root cannot be cured, the disease will only become more serious." Sun Youtai said very solemnly, with a very determined look on his face.
"This kind of problem is even troublesome for Deputy Commander Li, so what can we do now? We have caught a few examples before, and Deputy Commander Li personally drew a gun and killed a few of them, but just for this matter, then
The commanders of the three regiments were so troubled that they almost staged a mutiny. The more war there is, the more disordered the military discipline is, but it is usually fine. Even if we have to deal with these rabble, we must not do it at this time." Commander Lin sighed.
He took a breath and said in a very depressed tone.
"How can this be done? If even Master Li can't control it, won't the Seventeenth Division be in chaos? This matter must have a result no matter what. If Master Li can't handle it, then we have to sue Governor Zhang.
.If things go on like this, the army will be like bandits, how can the people still trust us?" Sun Youtai said through gritted teeth.
"Brother Sun, you just don't understand. After all, it's our Governor Zhang who doesn't know how to lead troops. Those regiment leaders only need to flatter Governor Zhang and ask someone to give him some gold and silver jewelry. How can Governor Zhang blame him?"
They are just being indulged like this." Captain Lin sighed and said while shaking his head.
"Is that so? According to what you say, then you can't control this matter?" Sun Youtai said coldly, clenching his fists involuntarily as he spoke.
"This...well, it's really easy to manage. But if Master Li enters the city, he might be able to suppress these people. After all, Master Li has personally executed these soldiers before, and they don't want to look at the monk's face but also the Buddha's face.
." Captain Lin said speculatively.
"In this case, I will send a telegram to Ningling first." Sun Youtai said. After he finished speaking, he looked at Old Man Wu and his group, his face looked very helpless, and he persuaded in a low voice: "Mr. Wu, this matter
I will try my best to deal with it. It's so chaotic outside right now, so you'd better stay in the mansion and don't go out easily. If you have any relatives or friends, please ask them to come here for the time being."
"Sir, you want my uncle, my mother-in-law, and my daughter. Sir, they were kidnapped by those people..." A'er knelt down with a "pop" and kowtowed to his head while crying.
Sun Youtai looked at the other party's appearance and couldn't bear it for a moment, but after thinking about it, he couldn't find any other way.
"Chen Jin, take a few people out now to help him find his wife and children. If you find them, bring them back. Mr. Wu, send someone to lead the way." After some thought, he could only say reluctantly.
.
"Yes, yes, thank you, Mr. Sun, and thank you, Master Jun." Old man Wu quickly wiped away his tears, helped Ah Er up, and then walked out with the sergeant named Chen Jin.dd
