Beiyang Xiaoxiong

Chapter 90 Lv Shuanggun 1

What is Songshan? That is an important support point to ensure the retreat of the Third Mixed Association. Once the Russian army or the Japanese army comes, Jinzhou City east of the Xiaoling River can be lost, the Cuiyan and Tiger Valley in the north of Jinzhou can be lost, and even the daughter's hometown can not be guarded when necessary, but if the Russian army crosses the river from the southern plain of Jinzhou to attack By the way, Matsuyama must not lose it until the main force of the Third Mixed Association withdraws from his daughter's hometown.

Because before the withdrawal of the Third Mixed Association, once Songshan is lost, it means that the main force of the Third Mixed Association in Daughter's Township and the troops in the Cuiyan area will cut off the back road. At that time, only the whole army is waiting for the Third Mixed Association to be destroyed.

Where this works, the southern strategic support point of the Jinzhou defense line, the Songshan defense line is naturally highly valued by Zhao Dongyun. Some time ago, he sent heavy troops to garrison and hired a large number of civilians to build fortifications, and Meng Enyuan presided over the Songshan defense line.

Now that Meng Enyuan has been transferred to the north to suppress bandits, it is natural that there can be no one in Songshan Town. Originally, Chen Guangyuan thought that Pei Lianying, the tenth target, would replace Meng Enyuan in Songshan Town, but he did not expect that Zhao Dongyun would transfer himself.

"I don't need to tell you more about the importance of Songshan. You used to do a good job and arrange Songshan's defense!" Speaking of this, Zhao Dongyun looked at Chen Guangyuan with a trace of expectation: "If our third mixed association becomes the third town, we can't let outsiders come to sit in the position of those two leaders. Even for the future, you have to work hard!"

Zhao Dongyun's words almost show that after the third mixed into the third town, one of the two co-owners is ready to give him Chen Guangyuan. Now it depends on Chen Guangyuan's own performance.

Chen Guangyuan's face has become excited: "Don't worry, I will definitely make the water created by Songshan. As long as I have Chen Guangyuan in Songshan for a day, there will be no way out of our third mixed association!"

Zhao Dongyun nodded with satisfaction, and then waved his hand to let him go out. Chen Guangyuan has performed quite well recently. Although he sometimes can't put down, he probably realized that the reality has begun to turn to Zhao Dongyun's side. After all, with the Third Mixed Association and Chen Guangyuan, Zhao Dongyun's many situations Look, Chen Guangyuan's future has been basically controlled by Zhao Dongyun. If he doesn't turn to Zhao Dongyun, he won't say anything, but he won't want to be promoted in these three or five years.

So in the face of Chen Guangyuan, who has begun to turn to himself, Zhao Dongyun will naturally not put on the face of an old enemy, but has made a sincere attitude of acceptance and given future rewards for the leadership of the association. This intention is simple. It is nothing more than to tell Chen Guangyuan and other people who want to join Zhao Dongyun: I Zhao Dongyun is looking forward to you coming to join.

Apart from mentioning Chen Guangyuan who went out with a happy face, Zhao Dongyun continued to read the * in his hand. The briefing in his hand was a secret briefing sent by Zhao Dongping. The above described in detail the many gains of the northern detachment in the past few days, but only wiped out three small bandits, not to mention the harvest of guns and horses, just now. The gold income has reached more than 10,000 taels of silver, and there are more other messy goods, which are estimated to be able to sell thousands of taels of silver.

This amount of money alone can make up for the extraction fee and ammunition in this anti-bandit operation. Zhao Dongyun's additional funds expected to approve this one-month anti-bandit operation is only 20,000 taels of silver, that is to say, the additional cost of suppressing bandits is only one About 10,000 taels, if you return the capital now, then the next harvest will be profit.

And the three bandits in front are still small miscellaneous fish. Zhao Dongping said in the briefing that he would launch the encirclement of 'Lv Shuanggun' in the future, and he is expected to get at least 50,000 taels of goods.

In mid-September, Meng Enyuan's military front has pointed directly to the 'Lv Shuanggun' department in Hongjiatun, 70 kilometers north of Jinzhou. The bandit leader is nicknamed 'Lv Shuangqiang'. It is said that he is good at using two* and shot two pistols at the enemy. Basically, the enemy became a hornet's nest. In addition, there is another nickname The meaning is that two guns also mean double robbery, claiming to rob all money and women wherever they go.

His subordinates have more than 300 bandits, and what is more valuable is that his 300 bandits are all riding bandits, with at least hundreds of new guns.

A few years ago, he liked to pick up Russian trains as much as Feng Delin, and this man dared to fight hard with the Russian soldiers. A few years ago, he was jealous of the Russians' new quick grab and even did an ambush for the Russian railway patrol.

The Mosinagan rifle in his hand was not bought, but robbed

During the Gengzi period, due to the large number of Russians' increase of troops in the northeast and the launch of a large-scale suppression of Lv Shuang's gun headquarters, which was originally stationed in western Jilin, although Lv Shuang's gun headquarters dared to fight hard, it was just a nest of bandits. It was hit by the Russian army and suffered heavy losses. In the end, Lv Shuang gun only took dozens of bandits all the way to the west.

Because Tai'an, Liaozhong, Panshan, Xinmin and other places in western Liaoning have been dominated by Zhang Zuolin, Feng Delin, Du Li and others.

So even if Lv Shuanggun was brilliant in his early years, he was naturally unwilling to provoke Feng Delin, Du Lisan and others when he was depressed, so he bypassed the Liaohe area and did not grab food with Feng Delin, Du Lisan, Zhang Zuolin and others, but ran to the north of Jinzhou.

And I have to say that this man really has a way of being a bandit. In his early years, he even dared to fight with the Russian soldiers. At one point, the momentum was so great that Russia sent a large army to encircle and suppress it. After arriving in northern Jinzhou, it didn't take two years to recover.

At the beginning of his coming to the north of Jinzhou, he only had more than 50 remnants, but he soon reassembed more than 300 bandits, and there were not many old, weak women and children as many stockade bandits. His more than 300 men were young and strong, and they were all bandits with horses and guns.

This person's behavior is different from that of Du Lisan, Feng Delin and others. Although he has many men and is also in the area near Hongjiatun, he did not vigorously operate the base area and formalize his subordinates. He still relies on the traditional bandit methods of family robbery and kidnapping as his main source of income.

Because of his large number of men, in order to obtain a large amount of income, he also forced the Ministry to have a wide range of activities. In the past two years, the northern part of Jinzhou, the western Liaoxi Corridor, the northwest of Xinmin, Changwu, and even Inner Mongolia have been his scope of activities.

Although there are not many people killed everywhere he goes, he will not go to the rich landlords to rob them, but rob them everywhere he goes. Whether it's rich or the poor people, anyway, they will rob them when they see it. This money is like this, especially for beautiful women, don't care about the small family. Yu is still everyone's bestie, and she will grab it when she sees it. Those ladies are rarely spoiled. They basically ask for a large amount of ransom. If no one comes to redeem them, except for being left to be the wife of the village, most of them will be sold to various places.

Therefore, in the eyes of many colleagues who are also bandits in Northeast China, this person's behavior is not disgraceable. He also engages in the business of selling women. What's more importantly, he does is the method of withered fishing, and even rations will not be left to people.

Looking at this person's information, Zhao Dongyun frowned slightly. Lu Shuanggun was cruel and fierce, but he was not ambitious and ignorant? Generally speaking, with the strength of 300 elite riders and bandits, and controlling such a large area, it will generally evolve into a more formal armed force. Like Du Lisan and Feng Delin, they gradually reduce direct looting and kidnapping, turn it into a base, collect local taxes and tolls for business ships, etc. Wait, and their armed forces will not invade the people in the jurisdiction. On the contrary, they will be protected.

For example, if Lv Shuanggun runs to Du Lisan's territory to rob the kidnap, then Du Lisan will definitely lose his temper and lead his troops to fight there.

However, Lv Shuanggun still maintains the traditional bandit model, wasting the 300 elite riders and bandits, and how much does it cost every year to raise these 300 elite bandits? And for this money, how many people do they have to plunder and how many meat tickets they kidnap every year?

What's more important is that this person has the strength, but he doesn't know how to manage, so he will definitely not have too much wealth in his hand.

But then again, even if the property in Lv Shuanggun's nest is not as much as Du Lisan and Feng Delin, it must be more than those small bandit nests, at least tens of thousands of taels of silver.

In the early morning of September 14, at a small hill outside Hongjiatun, which was originally a desolate one, was surging at this time. Some of the officers of the Beiyang Third Mixed Association in gray military uniforms were talking in a low voice, and some were holding binoculars to observe Hongjiatun not far away.

"Your Excellency, now the front and rear teams of the first battalion of the cavalry led by Huaguan have been stationed in Dongbagou. As long as they guard Dongbagou, it is enough to break Lv Shuanggun's north retreat road, and the third battalion led by Wang Guan has also been enveloped from Lijia Village. At that time, as long as we launch a frontal attack to restrain their attention, Wang Guan led The third battalion of the cavalry can launch a raid from the left wing and then sweep Hongjiatun!" The speaker is Liu Fu, the leader of the 9th Battalion of the Third Mixed Cooperation Team.

Meng Enyuan also put down his telescope at this time and said with doubts, "Although Hongjiatun has been surrounded by us, I'm afraid there will be too many casualties if you want to attack!"

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but remember what Zhao Dongyun said to him before departure: This trip should be mainly about training troops. In addition to winning, he should also try his best to protect our brothers.

This time, in order to completely surround them, Meng Enyuan mobilized most of the troops of the northern detachment. In addition, he also brought mortars and machine guns.

In order to mobilization so many troops, Meng Enyuan even had to shrink the width of the net to suppress the bandits in the north.
