It was not dark at this time, and Song Xing led a battalion to come. The smoke and dust had already alarmed the bandits looking at the wind, and hurriedly reported that the main force of the Red Army was coming.
Han Sangjie was shocked when he received the report and hurriedly climbed up to the roof and took a telescope to see a team of Red Army cavalry raiding horses, with at least 400 people. Seeing the dust flying, there seemed to be troops coming from a distance. Oh my god, this transaction was probably a mess. The Red Army cavalry came too fast, and it would be too late to retreat.
Han Sangjie was a habitual bandit. He knew that he could not hesitate at this time. He immediately shouted and summoned the bandits to retreat and retreat to Shenmu County.
The town was immediately in chaos. Several horse bandits lit houses before leaving. The fire took advantage of the wind and quickly enveloped the town in fireworks.
Although Liu Yimin, who was marching, did not know what the enemy was, he could tell that it must be a bandit. There was no Central Army around, the Jinsui Army could not cross the Yellow River, and Ma Hongbin and Ma Hongkui troops in Ningxia could not provoke the Red Army. The Inner Mongolia direction is now a mess. Although there are many princes and princes, there are no powerful troops at all, and there are no generals who dare to go deep into the Red Army occupation army to launch attacks. This must be a bandit who wandered on the grassland. He was jealous of the Shaanxi-Mongolian trade transactions and wanted to loot the passing merchants.
Since it was a horse bandit, Liu Yimin was relieved, because although he didn't know how many horse bandits were, he knew the combat power of his troops. An elite cavalry regiment faced a group of horse bandits, not to mention that the number of horse bandits could not be too large, so what if there were four or five thousand people? With the equipment and firepower of the cavalry regiment, if the horse bandits could not be eliminated, the cavalry regiment could be revoked.
The only thing I worry about is that I am afraid that the horse bandits will run away, so that a group of cavalry will not be able to catch up with them. In that case, it will be difficult to destroy this group of horse bandits in the future.
Where can the horse bandits escape? They don’t go to Yulin, and there is the main force of the cavalry division. It is impossible to go to the east, there is the Yellow River, and there is also the river defense force. It is impossible to go to Shenmu in the north. Are the horse bandits afraid that there will be garrisons in Shenmu County and will intercept them? Only the Mu Us Desert to the west can be the place where the horse bandits want to escape. Once they enter the desert, even if the horse bandits escape, because the cavalry division has been in Yulin for a short time and is not familiar with the situation in the desert, and the horse bandits may be very familiar with it.
Liu Yimin immediately ordered Hu Laohu to stop advancing, return to Yao Town along the way, and set up a hidden ambush position in Yao Town. He ordered the first battalion and the second battalion to resolutely pursue the horse bandits and drive them towards Yao Town.
At this time, Song Xing led the first battalion into the town. The slow-running bandits behind the hall became ghosts under the swords of the soldiers.
When I entered the town, I saw a mess and a terrible sight. All households had open doors, and the bodies of residents and merchants were everywhere. Some of them had naked women killed in the yard. Several working team members died at the entrance of a yard in the middle of the town, and were all cut to death by sabers, which was very miserable. Song Xing's blue veins jumped straight on his head and ordered the first battalion commander to lead the Third Company to organize the fire and rescue the injured people. He turned around and raised the sabers and shouted to the first Company and the second Company: "Catch up and kill all these bastards for me!" He led the team to chase them in the direction of the robbers' escape.
After Kang Wei led the Third Battalion to arrive, he saw the tragic situation in the town and did not stop, and immediately followed the pursuit troops of the First Battalion.
Han Sangjie ran and looked back. Seeing the dust behind him, he felt frightened and knew that the Red Army cavalry was pursuing desperately. Han Sangjie knew that his brothers robbed a merchant, destroyed a town, and made a woman, but if he wanted to meet a regular army, there was only two ways to escape or surrender. Now the way to surrender is not mentioned. First, he has not had enough fun, so where could he surrender to the Red Army? Second, he just killed and set fire in the town, and even if he wanted to surrender, he would not surrender. The Red Army would not let him survive. But how can he escape to have a life? I am afraid he has to think about it.
Han Sangjie circled the horse head and said to the second in commander: "Second, we can't run around, otherwise everyone will die. If you go and let the fourth brigade's rear block, we will turn immediately and not run towards the direction of Shenmu. If there is a Red Army in Shenmu, we will be done. We must turn around immediately, go west, go to Yao Town, and then enter the desert. Tell your brothers that only by entering the desert can we have life."
The second head immediately ordered the fourth brigade's rear to block the attack, but he followed the eldest head to turn around and head to Yaozhen.
Song Xing led the first battalion and the second company to catch up, the fourth brigade of the siege behind the horse bandits had already formed a formation, raised their saber, and waited for the fight.
Song Xing sneered, and as soon as he led the sword, the team immediately formed a formation, drawing an arc in front of the fourth brigade team of the horse bandits. The soldiers' machine guns, submachine guns and rifles began to shoot at the war. The machine guns and charge robberies were all in a shuttle, and the rifles were only fired. Song Xing's war horse had already run through the arc circle and returned to the position before the attack. He turned his head and saw that the round of bullets had fallen, and the blocking bandits had collapsed, leaving behind the bodies on the ground, fleeing in all directions, and had no formation at all.
Song Xing waved his sword and led the soldiers to chase him again.
Although it was summer, the sky was getting dark at this time. Seeing that the darkness in front of him should be about to arrive in Yao Town, Han Sangjie immediately turned around and shouted: "Brothers, work harder, it will be safe to rush through Yao Town!"
Han Sangjie didn't expect that this was his last sentence when he stayed in the world.
When Han Sangjie finished calling and turned around and urged the horse to rush over Yao Town, Hu Laohu, the commander of the cavalry division of the Red Seventh Army, waved his hand down. Several heavy machine guns from the Second Battalion beside him roared, and the bullets emitted a series of lights and rushed towards Han Sangjie who was at the forefront.
Han Sangjie felt a shock in his chest and fell off his war horse. The scene of his first bullying of his cousin when he was 16 years old appeared in his mind: wild flowers were everywhere on the grassland in spring. He rode a horse to see his uncle from home. When he saw his cousin bleaching in the yard and putting his quilt on his face, his high chest trembled. The 16-year-old Han Sangjie was shaking and furious. He looked at the yard with no one else. Han Sangjie, 16, came forward and picked up his cousin and rushed into the yurt. His cousin's crying sounded as good as music, and that white and round.
He felt as if he had a straight breast, and he felt as if he had drunk spring water when he was in the dog days. He kept rubbing his cousin's breasts with one hand, tore open his cousin's clothes with the other hand, and stepped into his cousin's body. His cousin seemed to be tired of struggling, lying on the kang, his eyes were empty, and he kept muttering about beasts and beasts. When his uncle came back, he pulled out his waist knife and rushed towards him. He climbed up from his cousin and fled. From then on, there was a 16-year-old boy missing on the grassland, and a maniac who killed people and robbed people and committed evil deeds.
As he thought about it, it seemed that his cousin was walking towards her from the sky, his chest was still so high and so bulging. Han Sangjie squirmed a few times, as if he wanted to call him cousin. But there was no sound from the corner of his mouth, but blood was leaking out. This horse bandit leader who had been wandering on the grassland for many years finally ended his sinful life on this summer night.
After Han Sangjie was shot dead, the large horse bandits who were eager to escape did not stop, but rushed towards the second camp position in a swarm.
When the cavalry charges, they can't stop just by wanting to stop. If the person in front hesitates for a moment, they will be knocked down by the impact of the large group of people behind and step into meat paste.
Therefore, the horse bandit ignored the fact that the boss was shot dead and swept towards the second camp position like a rush.
Liu Yimin knew that if the horse bandits rushed into the second camp's position and cut the horse, the defense line would collapse. Therefore, he ordered all the entourages to pick up weapons, light up the torches, go to the position, and strengthen the firepower. As long as the horse bandits resisted this wave of attack, the bandits would be finished.
After giving the order, Liu Yimin picked up the submachine gun and spare magazine he carried on the battle horse, pulled Tang Xingying and rushed to the position.
When I got to the position, I saw that the torch had been inserted, and all the light and heavy machine guns, mortars, submachine guns and rifles of the Second Battalion were firing.
Liu Yimin asked Tang Xingying to crawl beside him, pressed her head, and then he began to shoot with a submachine gun.
At this time, the horse bandits were charging in groups, and the soldiers almost didn't need to aim. They just fired at the horse bandit brigade, and there were few people who could get empty.
The situation was better than Liu Yimin thought. The shock wave of the horse bandit was just an inertial shock wave. When the stormtroopers were almost wiped out by the firepower of the second camp, the team became in chaos.
In fact, all bandits are like this. They usually collapse after losing a battle, let alone the boss was shot dead? The bandits can no longer organize effective resistance.
Historically, military scientists commented on the style of bandits in the national army, not saying that the national army is so bad that it plunders the people, but that once it is defeated, the team will herd sheep. Most of the losses are not caused by fighting on the battlefield, but in the unorganized and undisciplined retreat teams.
Now this is the case with the remnants of Han Sangjie and the horse bandits, she is herding sheep!
The second leader, the third leader, the fourth leader, and the fifth leader are all with the big leader. Their horses are good, and they run faster, so they naturally report to the King of Hell. The remaining horse bandits could not control their inertia at first and rushed up against the firepower. Now the main force has almost been eliminated, and the impact of inertia is smaller. The horse bandits who have reflected faster have already known it and have fallen into an ambush circle. Now they should be individuals who are concerned about the horse heads and run to the side. Those who are slow to react and hesitate and hesitate, squeeze into a ball and become targets for machine gun firepower. Those who are running behind and have been reflected for a longer time, will naturally lead the horse heads to flee in all directions.
Seeing that the bandits had collapsed, Hu Laohu ordered the soldiers to hold torches and attack them on the Aristolova.
The first and third battalions also caught up. Seeing that the bandits were collapsed, Song Xing and Kang Wei ordered the troops to stop and light the torches in order to avoid accidental injury. After the torches were lit, the two battalions were like battlefields, holding torches, and scattered the bandits from their wings.
The horse bandits have a characteristic, that is, they are all cruel and have some ability to escape and save their lives. Although the brigades have herded sheep, the horse bandits who flee with guns or swords to fight against the soldiers who chased them, and the Red Army cavalry began to suffer casualties.
Song Xing was already dizzy by the tragedy in Jinjie Town, thinking that these horse bandits were scumbags and all deserved to die. Seeing the casualties of the troops, he became even more furious and ordered the soldiers to talk to the horse bandits with bullets, and everyone who dared to resist would be eliminated.
Now, the doomsday of the horse bandits who were running around in scattered areas is coming. They can't even practice sword skills with the Red Army. As long as they dare to shoot a shot or swing a sabre, they will be beaten into a hornet's nest immediately.
The battle did not last long, and the horse bandits who were blocked from their way out and retreated were killed and injured under the attack of a cavalry's superior firepower. The remaining bandits had to roll off their saddles obediently and raise their hands to surrender.
When Liu Yimin arrived at Jinjie Town, he was shocked by the tragic situation in the town. Since he traveled through time, although he had fought many wars, he had seen all the tragic scenes of death on the battlefield. But it was a war between soldiers. Since he had entered the battlefield, he had to be beaten to death and no one would complain. Although the Hunan Army, the Ma Family Army, and the Central Army had done a lot of work, Liu Yimin had no chance to see it yet, and his understanding was still based on the original book knowledge and the story of the old Red Army. Although the horse bandits who robbed Jinjie Town were Ma bandits, we can know from this how the Japanese army did the future.
Seeing that the Red Army returned to the town after the battle, they were still escorting a long list of prisoners. The survivors in the town knelt in front of Liu Yimin and asked the Red Army to shoot these bandits.
Liu Yimin knew that most of these bandits were habitual bandits and could not be handled according to the general captive policy, so he asked the surviving people to identify them. As long as they rape, kill, fire prevention, or robbed in the town, they would be pulled out and wait for treatment.
What Liu Yimin did not expect was that most of the prisoners were pulled out.
There were more than 1,000 Han Sangjie horse bandits, most of them became ghosts from the Red Army, and only more than 300 prisoners were captured. The people identified them, leaving only dozens of people.
What should Hu Laohu do if he asks for instructions?
Liu Yimin felt a headache and looked at Cai Zhong and Zeng Zhongsheng.
Cai Zhong and Zeng Zhongsheng turned their heads elsewhere, as if they didn't know Liu Yimin's existence.
Liu Yimin thought about it, this matter should not be reckless, and he could not be shot all at the right time. In that way, he would be left with a reputation as killing prisoners. He wanted to imprison these prisoners and make them permanent free labor for the coal mine, but he felt that it was too cheap for these bastards. When he was in a dilemma, the surviving people in the town knelt in front of him again.
Liu Yimin hurried to pick up the villagers and let them get up and talk.
A man in his 40s in the head said: "Chief of the Red Army, if you don't shoot these bastards, the Russians will kneel to death in front of you. The Red Army is a team of poor Russians. This group of horse bandits have harmed the Russian town like this. If the Red Army doesn't shoot them, then Russia will not believe in the Red Army's policies."
Liu Yimin thought that this place is close to the desert and safety issues are indeed difficult to deal with. He must kill Yi Jingbai, so that the horse bandits dare not dare to take the base again. It is just that it is not convenient for him to do it. The Shenmu County Government should be here to judge these bandits and be shot in public trial.
After thinking about it, Liu Yimin said to the man: "My fellow villager, our Red Army is a disciplined army and cannot kill prisoners. However, I will immediately notify the Anti-Japanese Democratic Government of Shenmu County and ask them to come quickly to interrogate these horse bandits here. To convene a public trial meeting tomorrow, public verdicts will be announced, and the public trial will be shot. Get up, our Red Army will definitely avenge the revenge of the villagers. In the future, the horse bandits who flee in a mess when they hear the word Jinjie, and they will never dare to make any more of their ideas."
The man then pulled the villagers to stand up, but they all surrounded Liu Yimin and refused to leave.
Liu Yimin knew the thoughts of the villagers and immediately ordered Hu Laohu to send the Third Camp to Shenmu County to pick up the county party committee and the comrades from the county government came to Jinjie to hold a public trial meeting and reported the news that all the working team members were killed.
The fellow villagers dispersed and soon cried sounded throughout the town.
Liu Yimin asked the bodies of the working team members and the bodies of several soldiers who died, and asked Song Xing and Kang Wei to lead a battalion to stay, organize the villagers to bury the bodies of their relatives and repair the burned houses. After the Shenmu County Party Committee and County Government comrades arrived, they would first hold a burial ceremony for the martyrs, and then publicly tried and shot the horse bandits who committed many evil deeds. The remaining horse bandits were taken back to Yulin and imprisoned, and then asked them to participate in the road construction and open coal mines. They should also organize the masses to bury the bodies of the horse bandits as soon as possible, and it would be hot to prevent the epidemic. Tonight, the horse bandits were interrogated, and the horse bandits were found, and the gold, silver and treasures they robbed were brought back.
After the explanation, Liu Yimin, Cai Zhong, Zeng Zhongsheng, and Hu Laohu led the second camp to camp in Dabaodang Town.
That night, Jinjie Town was brightly lit. Under the organization of the Red Army, the fellow villagers were busy burying the remains of their relatives, carrying the bodies of the bandits out of the town, and digging pits to bury them.
Song Xing and Kang Wei were busy completing the tasks assigned by the corps commander, interrogating all the captured horse bandits, clarifying the strongholds after Han Sangjie's horse bandits went south, and preparing to send troops to raid the horse bandits' nest tomorrow.
During this interrogation, Song Xing and Kang Wei knew what a scum is. Most of these horse bandits were spoiled bandits, murdered and robbed people, raped women, and did bad things.
When the Shenmu County Party Committee and the county government comrades arrived at Jinjie, it was already clear that they sorted out their appearances for several martyrs and buried them with coffins drawn from Shenmu County. They held a burial ceremony. They also found a stonemason to carve the Jinjie and the Martyrs Monument of the Battle of the Red Army in Yaozhen, and carved the names and numbers of the martyrs clearly.
In the morning, based on the results of the overnight interrogation of the cavalry 1st regiment and the accusations of the villagers of Jinjie Town, the anti-Japanese democratic government of Shenmu County held a public trial meeting in Jinjie, sentenced 273 habitual bandits to death and immediately executed.
A firing squad consisting of a group of soldiers, surrounded by villagers, dragged these unforgivable horse bandits to the sandy land west of the town to carry out gun execution.
After the public trial meeting, the cavalry regiment immediately handed over the weapons and ammunition of the captured horse bandits to the Shenmu County Government, and asked them to quickly organize militias to form the Shenmu Security Corps. The machine guns and some rifles needed by the security regiment were asked to pull up the team and go to Yulin to collect them.
After completing these things, Song Xing led the First Battalion to rest for a while, and then a horse bandit who was not guilty of death led the way to the old nest of the horse bandits. Kang Wei led the Third Battalion to Dabaodang Town and met with the Second Battalion.
When Liu Yi got up at the camping camp, he took Shen Qianyi and the dozen teachers and students to survey around Dabaodang. At 10 o'clock, Liu Yimin chose several mining sites that were not too far away. He ordered Hu Laohu to ask the soldiers to start digging.
I heard that the corps commander had found the coal mine. Cai Zhong, Zeng Zhongsheng, Tang Xingying, Zhao Xiaoman and Jingjing all came here. Everyone should witness the moment when the coal mine in northern Shaanxi was born. Jingjing even took out the camera and took photos of the soldiers digging first, then took photos of Liu Yimin holding a cigarette in his hand, squatting aside to look at the photos of the soldiers digging, and then waited for the moment when the coal was released.
