Chapter 209: Night Attack on a Small County Town
Yuan Shuai rolled his eyes in annoyance.
"You are all in charge of the troops. More sweat during training means less bloodshed on the battlefield. More bloodshed during training means fewer deaths on the battlefield. You should know this principle better than I do. But you can't take it after just one week. What's the point of training? Just disband and go farm!"
"..."
Jiang Zhengwu and Lu Hua were so embarrassed that they were speechless and could only bite the bullet and let the soldiers continue training.
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
After the soldiers gradually adapted to the intensity of the training, Jiang Zhengwu and Lu Huahua not only did not complain, but also asked Yuan Shuai to increase the intensity and content of the training...
On the other side, Sima Junyuan arranged for someone to find out the news and quickly report the situation to Sima Junyuan.
"What? They are a group of deserters!"
"That's right, Captain. I looked carefully. In their ranks, there are the Gui army, the Northwest army, the Hunan army, and even civilians in clothes. They are probably captured by them to work as coolies. The civilians are either cultivating the mountains or raising chickens and ducks! But these guys are practicing their marksmanship when they have nothing to do. The sound of gunfire can be heard from a long distance away..."
After listening, Sima Jun asked with a frown.
"How many of them are there?"
"I don't know the exact number, but there were a lot of gunshots. I estimate that there were at least a thousand people!"
"A thousand people?!"
Sima Jun took a breath of cold air.
When he heard that they were deserters, he thought about contacting the battalion commander and arresting all of them, but he didn't expect that there were actually thousands of them.
There are only more than a thousand people in their group.
These guys actually form a group?
"Damn it, these bastards, it's fine if they just deserted, but they actually went up the mountain to become bandits and even came to the county town to rob me! Damn it, I..."
Sima Jun wanted to take his men to attack these deserters and bandits right now, but they only had one reinforced company of about two hundred people.
And there are more than a thousand people there.
How could they be their match?
Not to mention his own company, even if he called his regiment commander over, their regiment might not be able to take over Qingyun Village.
After all, they all knew that Qingyun Village was originally a bandit den that was easy to defend but difficult to attack.
"Captain, I think since they are greedy for money, why not lure their leader down? As long as we catch their leader, they will surrender!"
Platoon leader Zhu Dayou quickly made a suggestion.
Upon hearing this, Sima Jun's eyes lit up and a sly smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
However, he soon snorted coldly at Zhu Dayou.
"Of course I know that when I lure the tiger away from the mountain, since Yuan Shuai is a gambler, he must be greedy and lustful. Hurry up and make arrangements. Send me a letter tomorrow, no, today, saying that I will invite him to the county town for a drink and transport his food. There are so many of them, they probably lack food! Also, mention that I admire his character and specially prepared him a, no, three big white pigs!"
"Captain, really, really, really give them three big white pigs!"
The subordinate who reported the incident was filled with astonishment and couldn't help swallowing.
"Snapped!"
Sima Jun slapped him directly.
"Damn it, you can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a lamb. If I don't kill a few big white pigs, will he realize my sincerity, you pighead!"
"Captain, you are wise. I will do it right away!"
The subordinate touched his beaten face and quickly turned away.
When it was almost dark, this guy delivered the letter directly to the foot of Qingyun Village.
The sentry at the foot of the mountain passed the letter up the mountain.
After reading the letter, Jiang Zhengwu and Lu Huahua tried to persuade him.
"Boss, don't take any risks this time!"
"The last time you ventured out, you made us worry the whole day!"
"Sima Jun, this old fox, will definitely not let it go after you robbed his gambling house and granary. Otherwise, he wouldn't have sent people here to investigate, and even sent you a letter!"
"Since ancient times, there has never been a good banquet. This is the Hongmen Banquet. You can't go!"...
"Are you done yet?"
Yuan Shuai covered his ears impatiently.
Jiang Zhengwu and Lu Hua wanted to say something, but when they saw Yuan Shuai's expression, they had to shut up.
Yuan Shuai coughed a few times and asked Jiang Zhengwu.
"How many days will the food we brought back last time last last last?"
"I estimate that it will take at most seven days. The brothers have been training very intensely and their appetites are huge!"
"This is terrible. Without food, the brothers will train on an empty stomach. In the future, without food, will the brothers fight the Japanese on an empty stomach? Since they invited me to dinner, why shouldn't I go! Besides, they only have one reinforced company with more than 200 people. I'm going to give them a big lesson this time..."
After hearing Yuan Shuai's plan, everyone laughed happily.
Everyone gave Yuan Shuai a thumbs up and praised him.
Yuan Shuai shouted at the sentry.
"Tell Sima Jun's messenger that I will arrive on time at noon tomorrow and ask him to prepare lunch for a whole company!"
Sima Jun's signalman ran back to report the situation, which made Sima Jun very angry.
"Damn it! Why are there so many of us here? Do you really think I'm a rich landlord and can eat for free?"
"Damn it, prepare the sleeping pills for me, one company at a time, I'll make them all fall!"...
At this time, it was already late at night.
The night wind was blowing.
A large group of black shadows were moving through the darkness.
Soon, these dark shadows came under the city wall.
Although there were Kuomintang soldiers standing guard on the city wall.
But these guys are usually lazy. At this time, several sentries were curled up in the corner with their eyes closed and sleeping.
No one noticed what was happening below the city wall.
Yuan Shuai waved his right hand, and many brothers threw out rope hooks, hooked on the wall above the city wall, and climbed up along the wall. After knocking out the sentries, all the Black Wolf Army climbed up the city wall one after another.
This time, except for Jiang Yangde's artillery and civilians, all the other Black Wolf troops, including Zhang Wei's troops, came.
After a force of more than 800 people infiltrated the county town, they divided into three groups. One group directly surrounded the Kuomintang camp, and the other group went straight to Sima Jun’s two granaries.
On the other hand, they directly disarmed the squad of nationalist troops guarding the city gate.
After the city gate was opened, horse-drawn carriages and cars outside drove into the county town.
At this time, Sima Jun was still sleeping soundly.
He dreamed that when he was drinking tomorrow, he would drug Yuan Shuai's entire company and then tie them up.
"Damn you Yuan Shuai, you have finally come to this day!"
While dreaming, Sima Jun couldn't help but utter a sinister laugh.
"Hey, who the hell are you calling a bastard?"
Yuan Shuai had already come to his window. When he heard him scolding him, he slapped him and woke him up immediately.
Sima Jun opened his eyes and saw Yuan Shuai standing in front of him. He quickly grabbed his pillow and tried to take out the money.
A pitch-black, cold Mauser pistol was staring at his head.
"I'm asking you, who the hell are you calling a bastard?"
"Snapped!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yuan Shuai slapped him again.
