Bright Sword's Bloody War of Resistance

Chapter 329

Early in the morning, Zhou Weihan and his party arrived at the West Garden of the Fourth Regiment.

The rest took a rest outside the town, Zhou Weihan and Zhao Gang went straight to the town's fourth regiment headquarters.

Entering from outside the town, the businesses along the streets are already open, and many small merchants are hawking on the streets.

Seeing this situation, Zhao Gang nodded and said, "The situation in Ci County is not as bad as reported by the Fourth Regiment. At least Xihuayuan Town is still good!"

"Old Zhao, what you're talking about is nonsense. The two towns of East and West Garden are located at the core of the Fourth Regiment's garrison. If these two towns cannot be controlled well, then the Fourth Regiment is staying in Ci County for nothing! "Zhou Weihan gave Zhao Gang a blank look.

Zhao Gang ignored Zhou Weihan, and walked towards the headquarters of the Fourth Regiment, followed by monks and other guards. Seeing this situation, he wanted to laugh but didn't dare.

"Detachment leader, political commissar!" Wang Yigong and Gao Zhiheng both gave a military salute.

"How is the current situation?" Zhou Weihan asked.

"The third battalion is located in Pengcheng Town, which is a big town. In addition to Guantai Town, the third battalion is in charge of the east, and the first battalion is in Qijialing, which is responsible for the towns in the west such as Dongxida City and Rencun Town. The current list The 35 targets were not noticed, and they were all followed by special people!"

"Our plan is that the political commissar is in charge of the east, and I will take people to the west. We will deal with the people first, and then deal with the land issue. Most of them live in the town. As long as we can catch everyone, then The next job will be much easier!"

"The two towns of East and West Garden have a direct subordinate team such as a supply company to cooperate with the villagers and soldiers to stay behind, so that there is no need to worry about the safety of the rear!" Wang Yigong said.

Zhou Weihan nodded after hearing this, and then said, "Let's do it this way. The 186 members of the working group and the cavalry regiment I brought this time will be handed over to you and Gao Zhiheng to command. You have full authority to handle this matter!"

Wang Yigong's Fourth Regiment was not idle during this time in Ci County. After driving away Zhu Huaibing's [-]th Army, the West Garden where the Fourth Regiment was stationed immediately cleaned up the East and West Gardens. The situation in the two towns was much more stable.

As for the rest of the villages and towns in the west of Ci County, the Fourth Regiment did not make a big move. The performance to the outside world was that the Fourth Regiment stationed here had more than enough heart but not enough power to control too much territory.

Except for the East and West Gardens, the order was maintained by the local villagers. On the surface, the four groups watched coldly and allowed it to develop, but in fact they secretly investigated their details and searched for evidence.

Now the time is ripe and it is time to harvest.

After a brief discussion, except for the left-behind personnel, the others divided into two groups, and launched an encirclement and suppression campaign towards the location of the personnel on the list immediately.

Pengcheng Town, near the Fengfeng mining area.

The Wu family is a big family in the area, with [-] mu of fertile land in several surrounding villages, many orchards, a coal yard, and three shops in Ci County.

There are four to five hundred tenants and workers under the name of the Wu family, and these forty or fifty thugs are supported on weekdays.

When the little devil came, he rushed to do things for him and raised money and food. After the Ninety-seventh Army came, he helped the recalcitrant army clean up the local underground organization.

After the Ninety-seventh Army was driven away, the Wu family took the route of the Fengfeng mining area again, relying on their proximity to the Japanese army's sphere of influence, they did not take the Fourth Regiment seriously.

After the Third Battalion of the Fourth Regiment was stationed in Pengcheng Town, they organized militias there many times, but the Wu family secretly blocked them.

The two sides are at the point where their swords are on the verge of breaking out, and the order around Pengcheng Town must be established on the bones of the Wu family.

After confirming that the main members of the Wu family were in the town through the stalking soldiers, Gao Zhiheng led some soldiers from the third battalion to gradually surround the Wu family compound from outside the town. The rest of the people on the list escaped.

The entire Wu Family Courtyard is built of blue bricks, the courtyard walls are about four meters high, and there are two observation platforms on both sides of the main entrance.

Just from the green brick courtyard wall, it can be seen that the Wu family is not only a simple rich man in the countryside, but also a number one figure in Ci County.

As soon as the soldiers from the third battalion entered the town, the Wu family received the news. When the third battalion rushed to the Wu family compound, the gate of the courtyard was locked, and light machine guns were added to the two observation platforms.

Seeing this situation, Gao Zhiheng smiled disdainfully, an earth leopard who had never seen the world, and wanted to wrestle with Situan.

Then he waved his hand and said: "Let the soldiers surround the Wu family compound from a distance, stay out of the range of the machine gun, and put the 82 mortar on it. I want to see if it is his machine gun that can hit far away or force it The mortar shoots far!"

Seeing the Eighth Route Army outside the courtyard set up mortars, a thug jumped off the observation platform in a panic.

"My lord, my lord, the Eighth Route Army has artillery, and it might fire at any time!"

After Wu Sande heard this, cold sweat broke out on his forehead. With one hand holding a cane, the other trembling hand took out a handkerchief from his pocket, and wiped it tremblingly on his forehead.

Then he asked his confidant next to him, "Has the person sent to the town hall returned?"

"Master, the Eighth Route Army came too suddenly. It is estimated that the town hall was captured by the Eighth Route Army at this time, and the phone calls could not be made in all likelihood. A few days ago, the Japanese were frightened by the Eighth Route Army. How dare you act rashly!"

"Then what should I do? Do I let the foundation of the ancestors be destroyed in my hands? No, I must not let the Eighth Route Army come in, go, let everyone go on top," Wu Sande said angrily.

"Yes, yes, yes!" The confidant responded bravely, and hurriedly greeted the staff.

After the people left, Wu Sande sat slumped on a chair. The Wu family had always been a fence-sitting faction. The stubborn army came to seek refuge with Zhu Huaibing, and the Japanese turned to the sect again.

However, both sides need a local big family like the Wu family to maintain order on one side, so they changed the king's banner on the wall, but the Wu family has never fallen down.

After the offensive of the Hundred Regiments War, the public security in the countryside has deteriorated, and there is an urgent need to add a new force. They are discussing with the Wu family to form a puppet army to station in Pengcheng Town.

At this time, it was the time when Wu Sande lost his composure. Unexpectedly, the Eighth Route Army's magical soldiers descended from the sky.

"Tom tom!" Two mortar shells blasted the Wu family compound, and the shells exploded in his courtyard.

Although the Wu family's thugs are usually in Yurou Township, they are not even comparable to the puppet army in terms of combat effectiveness, and they are praised by the mob.

After the two shells exploded, the thugs on the observation platform slipped away, and the soldiers of the third battalion took advantage of the situation, blasted open the gate of the courtyard, and rushed in.

Some thugs took the opportunity to slip away from the corner of the courtyard wall, only to be caught by the surrounding soldiers.

"Leave one squad to guard, and the rest will wipe out the Zhou family and the Song family in the town!"

On the same day, two battalions of the Fourth Regiment, an artillery company, and a cavalry regiment carried out major attacks on 35 local tyrants and evil gentry in the towns in the west of Ci County. Except for a few people who survived, the rest were caught in the morning. into capture.

This move can be described as sweeping the caves in the Liting Court to sweep away the evil spirits.

All of a sudden, the oppressed people around applauded.
