The train driver in the courtyard

More than ten kilometers away from the railway line is Ma Hang Mountain.

Seven or eight middle-aged people in rags were huddled in the cave.

Their clothes were in rags, their hair was a mess, and their faces were covered with years of accumulated dirt.

A cold wind blew, and in the cave where dripping water turned into ice, they could only cheer up to keep warm.

If they hadn't all carried spears on their shoulders, this place might have been considered the Ma Kengshan Branch of the Beggar Clan.

The leader of the bandit had almost no normal skin on his face, and was covered with a thick layer of pimples and scars. His big mouth was open, revealing sharp teeth.

It looks very fierce, and the people's legs will definitely tremble with fear when they see it.

only.

At this time, a cold wind blew from outside the cave, and he had to shrink his neck and shiver.

Don't look at him looking embarrassed now, wiping his nose with his sleeve.

Before liberation, he was a great figure.

This man's name is Wu Quanfu, and he is Liao Dadu's brother.

Wu Quanfu once served as a senator in Guangchang County and concurrently served as the captain of the 6th Corps under the Yuzhang Mountain Appeasement Command.

After Liao Dadu was executed, Wu Quanfu took his few remaining men and hid in the deep mountains and forests, hiding in this cave.

While contacting the representatives on the island, avoid being tracked by the soldiers.

The weather was freezing, dripping water turned into ice, the cold wind blew in the cave, and coupled with the lack of food and grass, life was really difficult.

Fortunately, all the wounded had been dealt with before going up the mountain. A dozen bandits took advantage of the situation and were able to go down the mountain to get some food, and finally managed to survive.

“When my brother-in-law wanted to attack the county town, I didn’t agree.

He was a cut-up guy, but he ended up believing what Commissioner Zhang said.

Not only did he lose his life, he was carried to the county town like a dead pig, and even his head was cut off. "

Inside the cave.

Straw was spread on the stones. Wu Quanfu smoked a cigarette, frowned tightly, and got angry at several bandits.

"Back then, we had more than 7 people, 300 machine guns, more than 1 rifles, several short guns, and a small radio station. How powerful it was. But now! Only a few of you are left! "

The bandits were shivering from the cold. They wanted to go out to get some firewood, but were afraid of being discovered by the soldiers, so they could only squat there and listen to the instructions.

The deputy captain's right ear was shot off by a bullet in the last battle, earning him the nickname One-Ear.

He licked his face and smiled: "Captain, it's all the fault of Liao Dadu's arrogance, otherwise we wouldn't have ended up like this."

Snapped

As soon as Yi Er finished speaking, Wu Quanfu raised his hand and fired.
He was so frightened that one ear trembled, his knees were slightly bent, and he fell to his knees on the ground.

"Captain, it's your subordinate's fault. I shouldn't have alienated the relationship between you two brothers. I should have beaten you."

As he spoke, he slapped himself twice.

Thinking that it was almost done, Yi Er raised his head, only to find that Wu Quanfu was not looking at him, but was staring at the hole.

Wu Quanfu clenched his teeth tightly and his chest rose and fell rapidly, as if he was trying his best to suppress the fire of anger.

Yi Er felt a chill in his heart and turned to look.

I don't know when I saw a middle-aged man wearing a top hat, carrying a civilized stick, and wearing an old-fashioned dress standing at the entrance of the cave.

His long coat was covered with dust and was fluttering in the wind. He looked very cool.

This guy would be even more photogenic if he didn't wipe his nose with a filthy handkerchief.

Looking at the bullet holes in front of him, Commissioner Zhang was not angry. He put away his handkerchief and put it into his jacket. Instead, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

He carried his coat, walked into the cave with square steps, and hugged Wu Quanfu.

"Captain Wu, I haven't seen you for a long time, but your marksmanship is still so good."

"Commissioner Zhang, you have made me a bastard brother, and now you dare to show your face!"

Jumping up from the straw throne, Wu Quanfu strode up to Commissioner Zhang like a tiger.

He grabbed the collar and pointed the black muzzle at Commissioner Zhang's head.

Seeing the work coming, the bandits nearby stopped trembling and raised their spears, aiming at Commissioner Zhang.

The atmosphere in the cave suddenly became extremely tense, like a cold wind blowing through everyone's body, making people feel chilly.

Wu Quanfu used a little force and hit Commissioner Zhang's head with his gun.

"Believe it or not, I will kill you now, take your life, give me the sworn brother, give me four to five hundred brothers to make amends."

Feeling the coldness from the muzzle of the gun, Commissioner Zhang remained calm and calm.

He stared at Captain Wu: "You can't shoot."

"I'll kill you now!"

Captain Wu put his finger on the trigger and raised it slightly.

Just when all the bandits were turned pale with fear.

"Hahaha!"

Eerie laughter echoed in the cave.

Captain Wu suddenly put down his pistol, hugged Commissioner Zhang's neck and laughed.

"Commissioner Zhang, you are worthy of being an elite. How can you keep the mountain from collapsing? Brother, I admire you."

"Come here, serve the wine. I want to have a nice drink with Commissioner Zhang today."

Wu Quanfu placed Commissioner Zhang on a stone throne and waved to the bandits next to him.

"Captain, we don't have any wine, can we do some croquettes?"

One ear reached into his pocket, took it out again, spread his hand, and found a black nest inside.

The wowotou was covered with dust, and you could tell at a glance that it had been robbed from a fellow villager's house.

Wu Quanfu felt that he had lost face, so he jumped up, gave him a big bag, and said with a serious face: "Idiot, this is the special correspondent sent over there. Are you just going to give him away with cornbread? Have you never seen cornbread? ?”

"Captain, we lost all our food and grass in the battle. Just this dark den, we robbed our fellow villagers a few days ago."

The wowotou fell to the ground.

He covered his cheek with one ear, pretending to be pitiful.

Wu Quanfu glared: "What's going on? The battle was arranged by Commissioner Zhang Te. Our losses were so great. Are you really accusing Commissioner Zhang Te of being a fool?"

The performance of the two seemed particularly clumsy.

Commissioner Zhang saw enough of the good show, waved his hand and said: "Okay, Lao Wu, we are also old friends, there is no need to bring a gun and a stick.

We did fail, but you have to believe that those mud-legged people are definitely no match for us!
Victory belongs to us in the end. When the large army over there comes, you will be the hero. "Commissioner, anyone can say cheap things. Brothers, their stomachs are not full now." In just a few days, three guys came down the mountain, and soon the team would disperse. "

Wu Quanfu said with a gloomy face: "The airdrop support you promised has not been delivered for a long time. Shouldn't you give an explanation to your brother?"

Wu Quanfu's attitude alternated between warm and cold. This unpredictable temperament made Commissioner Zhang find it difficult to control.

Fortunately, he was prepared.

"Support has already arrived. There are at least a dozen wagons of food. It's just that my brother needs to take people to pick it up in person."

Hearing this, Wu Quanfu became vigilant, and a cold light flashed in his wolf eyes: "Wagon? Are you planning to transport relief grain trains?"

Northwest Jiangxi is a poor area. Especially in the past two years, natural disasters have continued. Every year during the lean season, superiors will dispatch a large amount of relief food.

The train transporting relief food will pass through the railway track not far from the mountain.

Wu Quanfu once suggested that Liao Dadu rob the grain train.

It's just that in order to prove his strength to Commissioner Zhang and get more support, Liao Dadu chose to do something big.

"I have been informed that in less than two hours, a grain train full of grain will pass by here."

Commissioner Zhang was already prepared. He took out a map from his coat as he spoke.

"Captain Wu, look, it's only a few miles away from here. Once we grab the food, let's go up into the mountains and forests. Who can find us?"

Wu Quanfu looked at the map, touched his chin, and thought about the feasibility of action.

"We have no experience in intercepting trains. Besides, if the train doesn't stop, wouldn't we be caught blind?"

Commissioner Zhang put on his glasses, pointed to the railway line on the map and said: "Look, there is a sharp turn here. The speed of the train will definitely not be very high. When the time comes, you will lead people to block the road and hijack the train driver.

Let's drive the train to the foot of Mao'er Mountain, thirty miles away. I have already deployed manpower there, and the food can be emptied in a blink of an eye. "

"The grain of a dozen wagons is enough to reach 700 to 800 tons. We can use that grain to recruit some soldiers." Wu Quanfu's eyes lit up: "Aren't those people dividing the land for the Mudlegs? Let's just divide the grain. Let’s see who can fight who!”

Yi Er frowned: "Captain, there was too much noise this time, a whole train. Those people lost the train, and they will definitely not let it go. Have you forgotten the consequences of Liao Dadu?"

"Snapped!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he received a slap in the face.

Wu Quanfu said with a cold face: "Are you a fool? We have done such a big thing, how can Commissioner Zhang treat us badly?"

"Yes, yes, yes." Commissioner Zhang saw the two men starting to act again, and said with a smile: "Captain Wu, once you rob a train, you will rob the first train in the new world. Your good reputation will spread all over the world, and heroes from all walks of life will come to you."

"Stop talking about that and be more practical." Wu Quanfu said with a straight face: "I am different from Liao Dadu. I will not be fooled by your few words."

Commissioner Zhang opened his briefcase and took out a yellow document.

"Wu Quanfu is hereby appointed as the Commander-in-Chief of the Volunteer Army of Northwest Jiangxi Province on February 46, th year of the Republic of China."

"That's it? Or is he just a polished person?" Wu Quanfu showed a hint of disdain at the corner of his mouth. He took a dagger and began to cut his nails, without accepting the letter of appointment at all.

They used to work hard for this piece of paper, but now they understand that it is useless.

Commissioner Zhang was still not satisfied when he saw him, so he could only take out five small yellow croakers from his briefcase: "This is the salary given to you by your superiors."

After getting the small yellow croaker, Wu Quanfu nodded with satisfaction.

"Commissioner Zhang, you can help me do this job for you, but if you can wait, you have to arrange for all our brothers to go out."

Commissioner Zhang was stunned for a moment. Seeing Wu Quanfu's firm attitude, he could only grit his teeth and agree.

Of course, it's just a temporary agreement,

If these bandits dare to cause trouble, they will be dealt with easily.

This is an old skill of special correspondents.

How could Wu Quanfu know this?

I really thought I could live a life of debauchery, and I was immediately overjoyed.

He turned around and stood on the straw throne, and said to the dozen bandits: "Brothers, Shangfeng has promised us that as long as we rob the train, we can leave here. So, when we take action, Please be smart, if anyone dares to act cowardly, don't blame me for being rude."

At this time, the domestic situation has become clear, and the soldiers have made such a big battle a while ago.

In particular, the soldiers created so-called areas of responsibility.

All roads were strictly blocked, and nets were pulled to search the mountains. Troops were stationed in every village, sentries were set up in the mountains, and checkpoints were posted along the way. Searches were carried out during the day, ambushes were laid at night, food routes were cut off, and water sources were guarded.

The work teams, militia and farmers' associations mobilized the masses deeply, exposed the crimes of bandits, publicized the policy of suppressing bandits, and smashed the enemy's conspiracy of "a family of bandits".

There is a situation where young and old work together to catch bandits, and parents, wives and children (females) mobilize bandit relatives to surrender and start a new life.

The three bandits who escaped not long ago were persuaded by their families that they would rather squat on the fence than go down the mountain to surrender.

Most of the remaining bandits, with their hands covered in blood, also realized that if they continued to stay in the mountains, they would be caught sooner or later.

Now that they heard that they could go overseas, the bandits jumped for joy.

It stands to reason that the bandits live with their heads tied to their belts, and they eat and drink heavily before each trip.

But there was only Wowotou Bangzi Noodles in the cave, so Wu Quanfu had no choice but to get snow water, use the water for wine, and make a pre-war oath.

"Brothers, we will go down the mountain to do something later. Well done! We can go overseas in the future. Drink foreign wine and ride foreign horses. Everyone will be more energetic for me later. If anyone dares to have diarrhea, Don’t blame the box cannon in your hand for not recognizing people!”

"Don't worry, it's just a grain train. It's not like our brothers can take advantage of it!"

"Yes, yes, we are going to be prosperous this time."

"Guo Cha dog rubs it. He has been chewing the black corn for a while, and his teeth are about to fall out."

The bandits picked up the pottery bowl, drank a bowl of snow water, held their bellies in their hands and began to prepare their equipment.

This time the train was robbed, and the commotion was too big. The soldiers would definitely investigate, so Wu Quanfu decided to take all his family assets with him and move them with the train.

Hand grenades, explosives, landmines, telephone switchboards, long and short guns, soil guns, and shotguns opened the suspected armory. Commissioner Zhang was so shocked that his eyes almost fell out.

Especially when he saw an earth cannon in the corner.

"Okay, you've done a lot to improve your family's fortune."

Wu Quanfu was also proud of his weapons.

In the early years, the barrel of a gun represented strength and territory. With the barrel of a gun, one could enjoy great success.

The bandits loaded their weapons and ammunition on the carriage, and Wu Quanfu, with more than twenty bandits, mounted their horses and prepared to go down the mountain.

"I'm here to wish you immediate success. Brother, I still have things to arrange, so I'll take my leave now."

After Commissioner Zhang finished speaking, he turned around and left with his two followers.

Wu Quanfu pointed the box cannon at him.

"Commissioner Zhang, I'm sorry, but you have to accompany your brother this time."
