Chapter 61 Bandits are bandits

In February of the year of the lunar calendar, after the outbreak of the Russian War, in addition to fighting on the battlefield, the two countries coincidentally aimed at the bandits active in the northeast.

Loloskad Major Madrid, a senior staff officer of the Russian [***] team, believes that intelligence collection is a big problem for Russia to fight on other land. In order to benefit the army's operations, it is necessary to form a detachment composed of locals led by the Russian army. His idea attracted the attention of the headquarters of the Russian Far East Army, so he was appointed to recruit bandits in the northeast to assist the Russian army in fighting. In order to unify management and coordination, all the recruited bandits wear white towels on their shoulders or arms, and the people privately call them "flower team".

Correspondingly, the Japanese army also began to brid the northeastern bandits. The specific implementation of this action is Hanada Nakanosuke, Qiao Tiemu and others. Hanada Nakanosuke is a major in the Japanese staff. This man disguised as a cloud monk before the Russian War and spying on intelligence everywhere in northeast China. He learned a fluent Northeast dialect and was very familiar with bandits from all over the country. The bandits called him "Lord Hua".

After the war in Russia, Huatian tried his best to lobby the senior management of the army to collect and train local bandits to attack the Russian army, which was supported by Yuyuan Taro, the chief of staff of the Japanese army. Therefore, with a huge amount of military money, Lord Hua pulled up the flag with the scarlet letter on the white background in Phoenix, wrote "Manchurian Rebels" and began to recruit troops and horses. For a moment, the bandits who were familiar with it swarmed like flies.

On a forest path leading to Andong, hundreds of people were running along the horse in the direction of Andong. The horse team raised a gust of dust in the forest. The riders on horse's backs were either wearing military uniforms or civilian clothes, all of which were messy clothes. Even those in military uniforms were wearing messy Russian armies. All kinds of military uniforms, but their weapons are all Murata-style rifles.

Such teams have also been common in the past year. Naturally, carrying Japanese weapons are the northeast local beards recruited by the Japanese army in the northeast. For various reasons, many lands in the northeast choose to cooperate with the Japanese rather than the Russians. They search for intelligence for the Japanese army, and even cooperate with the Japanese army to carry out behind the enemy's back strategy. Action should be done, and the rewards are money and weapons.

After the rise of the anti-Russian Volunteer Army last year, some bandits were reorganized by the Volunteer Army, but there were still a large number of bandits serving the Japanese army. After the Sino-Japanese conflict, only a small group of people were still serving the Japanese army. In addition to the enemy rear destruction teams directly managed by the Japanese army, such as the Yongshao advance team, there are also some full of military personnel. Of course, among these people, there are also some bandits. Zhang Zuolin is one of them. Whether it is the rise of the anti-Russian army or the early stage of the conflict, he did not join the anti-Russian army before, and then he did not choose to return to the mountain forest to do his old line like other bandits.

Last year, in his opinion, the anti-Russian army was too risky, but now, if he still does his old job, he is afraid that he will be killed by the army in the end. The reason why Zhang Zuolin continues to serve the Japanese army is actually waiting for an opportunity, a suitable opportunity.

"Since ancient times, rebellion has been a shortcut to promotion and wealth. The dry green forest is by no means promising. In the end, the crock will not leave the well, and the general will inevitably die in battle. Either he is wiped out by the government or by the same black hands. The two must be one of them."

Zhang Zuolin on the horse's back muttered such a sentence repeatedly in his heart. The opportunity he waited for was the opportunity to be recruited. Knowing that he had missed the wind of the anti-Russian army and turned into an opportunity to become an officer, he was looking for a second opportunity while he was annoyed. And now, he is working hard for this opportunity.

Thinking of this, Zhang Zuolin turned his eyes to Zhao Weichen beside him. He was an officer sent by the First Army to contact him. As long as he captured the Andong Railway Bridge, his horse team could be adapted into a battalion, the major battalion commander of the Imperial Guards. At this time, he couldn't help admiring his foresight in his heart. When those people fled to the mountains Wait, I'm a little sure. Sooner or later, when the country will use itself, I often go to the road and bridge. I will go there at least once a month. I have been familiar with those who say that there is only one squadron to guard the bridge.

Although he knew that he would not have any precautions against himself, but when he returned to looking at the hundreds of officers and soldiers in the team, Zhang Zuolin still frowned and lightly. Zhang Zuolin was close to Zhao Qichen next to him.

"S officer Zhao, you are too military. Can you..."

There was a smile on his face, and Zhang Zuolin spat softly.

"Let the brothers think about women and tickets in their minds when they meet me! Don't think about other things!"

Zhang Zuolin, who has been an officer and a bandit, naturally knows the difference between soldiers and bandits. Even the Qing soldiers who were not much different from bandits in the past, they also look different from bandits. Even if the officers and soldiers are bandits, they are blatant and unscrupulous bandits, just like this group of people.

"Master, don't worry, although the brothers are officers and soldiers, they are also men!"

When Zhao Qianchen replied, his face suddenly showed the brilliance of the dart head when he used to break into the world and walk the dart Kulun. Zhao Kuichen, who came from the dart head, has been famous for walking the darts in the Jingkulun area for more than ten years. The restoration of Kulun, Zhangku Avenue was built by engineers, and the military station was set up every 40 miles along the line. He lost his livelihood, which coincided with the expansion of the Guangfu Army. After being introduced, he entered the search battalion directly under the North China Command of the Guangfu Army.

This time, the 63 top soldiers of the North China Command search battalion he led cooperated with Zhang Zuolin's horse team to seize the Andong Railway Bridge. Most of the dozens of them he brought were veterans who went deep into the enemy's back and blasting and special attacks. The most important thing was that these top soldiers were all from darts, and it was much easier to hide from the bandits of the horse team than ordinary top soldiers. Medium.

The Yalu River is a border river between China and North Korea. In ancient times, it was called Yushui, and it was called Mashui in the Han Dynasty. In the Tang Dynasty, it was called the Yalu River (Dynasui was the Datong River in the Sui and Tang Dynasties). Because the river was clear and shaped like a duck's head, it was called the Yalu River.

With the intensification of the competition between Russia over the interests of Northeast China, a dog-biting war broke out on the land of China in 1904. Before the war, two imperialist countries laid troops on both sides of the Yalu River. The Russian army was stationed in the area of Jiulian City with 20,000 troops, while the Japanese army was stationed in the area of Yizhou, North Korea with 30,000 troops. The two sides confront each other across the river. On April 18, 1904, the Japanese army began to fight across the river, starting the first battle of the Russian War - the Battle of Jiulian City. In May, in order to transport military supplies, a hand-pressure military light railway between Anton and Phoenix was built without authorization. In July, it was converted into a narrow-gauge military light railway for small locomotives and extended to Fengtian.

In order to supply military supplies during the war, I established a Japanese commercial rice factory and a military timber factory in Andong. The Japanese army also set up field postal post offices in Andong and Phoenix respectively. At the same time, the Japanese army also built a wooden beam railway bridge on the Yalu River to facilitate the connection of the Yiju Railway in South Korea. Although the strategic position here is relatively important, perhaps because in the past year, the Japanese army has always had an advantage in the Liaodong battlefield, and The front line needs an army, which makes this relatively important road and bridge. In addition to a squadron of bridge guards, the Japanese army did not leave more troops. However, after the outbreak of the conflict, in order to prevent the riots of the Chinese people in Andong, it recruited more than 100 overseas Chinese in the city to form a volunteer team to prevent the Chinese people in the city.

Under the cover of Zhang Zuolin and his party, Zhao Yichen and others, who were carrying the banner of "Manchurian Loyal and Righteous Army", passed through several whistles to Dandong smoothly without any concealment. They were completely swaggering on the official road and walking with guns on their backs.

"Grandma's bear! I'm in front of you to help you fight the officers and soldiers with very short file. The dog said that he would go to the city to find a bitch. His mother's pushes him!"

Zhao Qianchen on the horse's back scolded and followed the crowd to the wooden bridge.

Lieutenant Yoshimura, who guarded the bridge, saw that No. 100 was tied with a blood towel and a embarrassed "loyal army". He smiled in his heart. He must have been bombarded out of the city by Major Noda. Recently, Andong City has not allowed these bandits to enter again, but these people have run a hundred miles here, nothing more than I want to relax.

"Where are you going!"

As they approached, Lieutenant Yoshimura shouted in a stiff Chinese. The soldiers guarding the bridge mostly looked at the group of bandits with greed on their faces.

"Taijun, go to Yizhou to be a bitch!"

Zhang Zuolin, who was wrapped in a piece of white cloth on his forehead, shouted that Anton was not allowed to enter, but Yizhou always allowed to enter. With that, he threw a black cloth bag over.

"Thank you for your hard work. It's a small matter. If you don't respect it, please do it for your convenience!"

"Wara..."

With a shake, Yoshimura estimated that there were more than 50 yuan, which was more than his salary in the first half of his service. Seeing the money, he looked at the horse team of more than 100 people in front of him. Let them go. There seemed to be a little more people.

"That... there are a lot of people..."

"Big boss, you go there with the three masters. I'm here to slow down with a few old brothers who were shot. Damn it, don't earn money from your head. Damn it, it's a Korean woman with a wound. It's not a waste of money to scratch the hoofs! Take the silver and stuff the hole, and say it's white!"

When Zhao Qianchen said this, he immediately shouted loudly with more than 20 "beards" tied with white cloth. The smell of scratch in the nonsense, the strong Yoshimura couldn't help frowning, and the soldiers guarding the bridge were even more admiring.

"Wara"

Another small bag of silver dollars was thrown to Jicun, and Zhang Zuolin hugged his fist.

"Taijun, the brothers were injured in the front, and it's not easy. Please ask Taijun to arrange it to make a big meat or something..."

With silver, it is naturally easy to talk. Zhang Zuolin has been touched by these people for a long time. These little sons seem to be loyal ministers and righteous on the surface, but in their bones they are just a group of greedy and lustful bastards.

"For sure, sure..."

Jicun, who took the silver dollar, would refuse and guard the bridge. This bridge is the way for him to get rich. As soon as he stretched out his hand, Jicun called a soldier.

"Yamaguchi, go and arrange food for them!"

He ordered Yoshimura to reluctantly take out a few silver dollars from his wallet. Some of them were Chinese and Japanese. For Yoshimura, these silver dollars were the basis for him to make a fortune after the war.

"Give the captain 100 yuan a month, and then give..."

When Zhao Qianchen and his party were led by a Japanese soldier to eat, Yoshimura instead calculated how much money he could earn by the end of the war. Maybe others would pay their lives in this war, but Yoshimura, who was a merchant in Osaka, saw an opportunity to make a fortune in this war.

"slow down, slow down, don't worry, take it easy!"

When walking along the wooden railway bridge to the other side of the Yalu River, Zhang Zuolin reminded his brothers from time to time that he saw most of the officers and soldiers with short guns attached to their waists had untied their pistol holsters.

"Sir Liang, there are about two teams on the other side of the river. In the past, there was only one team..."

In Zhang Zuolin's reminder, Liang Shan had quietly put on the magazine for the submachine gun. His eyes stared at the Japanese soldier at the end of the bridge, and the original lustful expression on his face was a little grim.

Lying by a tree and looking at the busy Japanese soldiers, Zhao Yichen only felt strange. These soldiers were completely different from what he had contacted. Except that they were mostly old men and soldiers in their 30s and 40s, their every move was not like the army. They were busy for them for a few oceans like this. Prepare meals. These people are too greedy for money. They didn't even notice that most of the people left at the end of the bridge were scattered around them. With an order, they could be solved by breathing.

"Captain, we are still 30 meters away!"

Taking advantage of the tea delivery stall, the soldier carrying the teapot whispered in Zhao Henchen's ear.

"Let everyone get ready, according to the training, one by one..."

Zhao Yichen ordered and walked towards Naji Village with a sheepskin wine bag.

"Taijun, have a two sip!"

Looking at Jicun, who was listening to the silver dollar, Zhao Yichen raised the sheepskin bag in his hand.

"This is the rice wine I made from a turtle son's army, southern rice wine! It doesn't smell like a bird!"

"rice wine!"

Yoshimura was overjoyed. He couldn't get used to the local spirits in Manchuria at all.

"Yes, it's right for you. Take a bite!"

The sheepskin bag was thrown towards Jicun. As soon as Jicun took the wine bag and was about to drink, he felt a sharp pain in his throat. He lost consciousness when it was dark in front of him. When Zhao Qianchen twisted Jicun's throat with his fingers, the gunfire sounded at both ends of the river. The gunshot did not last long. Everything was like training in the past, from In the semi-open clothes room, he pulled out the submachine gun from the buttstock and shot at the Japanese soldier closest to him.

The short battle was not fierce at all, and even the vast majority of Japanese soldiers were killed when they failed to take off the rifle on their shoulders.

"Quick! Change your clothes!"

As soon as the battle was over, Zhao Weichen shouted and ran to his horse. He took out a package from behind the saddle and spread out a set of worn Japanese military uniforms.

"Damn it, give me the caston of these turtles and grandchildren!"

At the other end of the river, after the battle was easily solved, Zhang Zuolin, who was shot in the arm, looked at the dozen soldiers tied up by the officers and soldiers and gave a command to Tang Erhu.

Last year, he was coaxed by the dog's Xiaochuan to the Raoyang River barracks. He met Colonel Hashimoto, and saw that the soldiers would do it in the barracks. Colonel Hashimoto invited everyone to watch the program. The first program was to practice the formation. It was really wonderful, much more wonderful than when he was a soldier. The second one began to change its taste. It was to pull more than 100 bandits from Feng Linge to the field and practice bayonets! All of them were killed by the soldiers on the field and pulled out to feed the wolf dog. The third is to pull the eight leaders of Feng Linge to the field, and Xiaochuan practice beheading, cutting the heads of eight people in one breath and hanging them on the flagpole.

At that time, Zhang Zuolin was so angry that he kept scolding in his heart: Dongyang's little nose, I'll help you eight generations of ancestors! However, at that time, Zhang Zuolin also dared to be angry and dare not say anything, but now it is different. At the beginning, he pressed his finger print, so he finally saved a small life from the Raoyanghe Military Camp and escaped back. But this time, he was a fish and meat, and he was already a knife. Naturally, he wanted to find all the anger he suffered at the beginning.

"The head of the family, this is not good!"

Tang Erhu turned his eyes to Liang Shan, who was changing his military uniform, and gently reminded them that there were too many rules for those officers and soldiers. In case they violated their rules and missed the future of the master, it would be all over.

"It's okay. The officers and soldiers are more cruel to these little noses than us. Besides..."

Zhang Zuolin's eyes are horizontal.

"I'm still a bandit now, and I'm not an officer or a soldier. Of course, I have to follow the rules of the Green Forest Road!"

When shouting this, Zhang Zuolin also paid attention to the look of Officer Liang. The man seemed not to listen to him, but just ordered everyone to change their military uniforms.

"Splatoon leader, do we really not stop them?"

The soldiers in this uniform looked at the soldiers dragged into the forest by the group of bandits and went to Liangshan to ask.

"Stop?"

Liang Shan stared, "What's the stop? It's all his mother's group of bandits. Let's talk about his mother's rules of engagement. We are not allowed to kill prisoners, but they are bandits. Not to mention castling them, even if they are scraping these dogs, it has nothing to do with us!"

With that, Liang Shan waved his hand again and shouted at Zhang Zuolin.

"Zhang is in charge. You guys are quick to clean up. You may have to cross the train later!"

"Good!"

When Zhang Zuolin answered, the screams over there had already sounded. It was a man's desperate roar. Listening to the miserable shout, Liang Shan, who had changed into a second lieutenant's uniform, just smiled. In his opinion, the simplest and most effective way to treat any invading enemy is to do it better than him. They are even more ruthless. Only when they are so cruel that they feel scared can they not have the idea of daring to fight again.

"Okay, wait for another three hours. As long as we wait for three hours, the first division will arrive!"

There was a signal bomb on the Yalu River, which made Zhao Qianchen breathed a sigh of relief. The bridge was taken down, and the rest was up to the army!
