Heavy Industry Empire

Chapter 60 The War of the Crowd

The great bandit Liu Heiqi's hometown is Fei County, and many of the bandit backbones are also from Fei County.There is a characteristic of banditry. They burn, kill and loot outside, and pretend to be good people when they come home. They spend a little money casually. Some ignorant people think that these bandits are righteous bandits, heroes, robbing the rich and helping the poor, and ignore the bandits. Nature.

It was past noon, almost two o'clock, everyone was hungry, people from all walks of life came, gathered outside Shaoyao Mountain, more than 300 soldiers, thousands of people, the order was basically good, Liu Tianling arranged for Chai Fei to lead more than ten Individual soldiers went to scout.Then I got through to Duan Xuewen's phone call: "The situation is a bit bad. Liu Heiqi went crazy during his escape. In order to escape, he even sent a small group of bandits to wash the village with blood. Nine villages suffered varying degrees of blows."

"What?" On the other end of the phone, there was a black line at the end of Duan Xuewen, "Don't blame yourself too much, the commander. How about the casualties of our soldiers?"

"There were more than 100 casualties. Among Liu Heiqi's bandits, there was a group of bandits equipped by the Japanese. The guns were powerful and accurate. It was a headache. Not much to say, there are not enough medical soldiers. You quickly call at least [-] A doctor and a nurse came over and brought enough medicines, and there were many injured people in the village, and the cultural and art propaganda group came over to publicize Liu Heiqi's bad deeds."

"Okay, I understand. I'll arrange for someone to come over immediately." Duan Xuewen put down the phone and began to prepare.

During lunch, Zhao Lianyi led a company of [-] cavalry to arrive, and their company also suffered casualties. When searching for the remnants, several cavalry accidentally fell into the pit. Everyone was fine, but the horse died.

After a while, Chai Fei brought people back, and the location of the old bear's den was found out. At least 300 bandits entered there, and the original bandits probably numbered no less than 500.

Under the shade of the big tree, Liu Tianling held a simple meeting.

"Liu Lianchang, Qu Lianchang, your company has suffered heavy casualties, can the soldiers continue to fight?" Liu Tianling asked.

Qu Weimin's neck turned red: "Regimental Commander Liu looked down on me. More than 30 people were injured and ten died. Why can't we fight?"

Liu Tianling patted Qu Weimin on the shoulder: "Company Commander Qu thought too much. Your company did not participate in the unified military training. Your combat effectiveness is the weakest, and the soldiers can't bear it psychologically. In this way, you and your company will withdraw from the battle and rest in place."

Although Qu Weimin still wanted to fight, he was very grateful. He knew exactly what his soldiers were like. If the fight continued, the team would be in disarray. Instead of being shot as a deserter on the battlefield, it would be better to fix it now.Deserters are the most taboo in war, and once they flee, they will die.

Liu Tianling turned to look at Liu Erniang again: "How is your company doing?"

Liu Erniang said: "Our company is fine, there are still more than 70 who can fight, minor injuries are fine."

"Okay, take your people and the guards into the mountain together. Qu Weimin, Li Xiniu, you maintain order here, send a few cars to drive around, and shoot any hooligans who dare to take advantage of the fire."

"What about our company?" Zhao Lianyi asked.

Liu Tianling called Zhao Lianyi over, followed his instructions, and Zhao Lianyi left happily.

The team was about to enter the mountain to suppress the bandits. At this time, the people nearby had to follow if they quit. They wanted to refuse to let the people down. For fear of chilling the hearts of the people, Liu Tian stood on the roof of the car with a horn and shouted: "Folks, let's go in!" Shan is for fighting bandits, to avenge the dead fathers and fellow villagers, these goddamn bandits have done too many bad things, today is their end."

"Yes, kill them and avenge the folks, we all go together."

"I understand that everyone wants revenge. Many of my brothers died. Look at these soldiers. They are all injured, and some of them are dying. But fighting in the mountains is not a joke. We have to make an agreement."

"Okay, head Liu, let's talk, as long as we go into the mountains to fight bandits, we can do anything."

"First, only men, above and under the age of 50, are allowed to enter the mountain, and those who are too young and too old are allowed to stay. Second, everyone who enters the mountain has at least one weapon, a knife and a gun, and those with sticks are not allowed to go. .Thirdly, follow the command in all actions, and those who do not follow the order follow the military law."

The crowd fell silent. I didn't expect there to be so many rules for beating a bandit. At this time, an old man stood up and said: "Folks, Captain Liu is right. We are old bones, people in their 70s and [-]s. I was panting all the way, how can I fight a war? Let these young people do the fighting. It’s even more useless to obey orders and arrangements. Everyone wants revenge, not death. How can you do it if you don’t obey military orders? .”

Everyone nodded and said yes, and immediately selected a strong team of people. There were about 500 people, all of whom were from the mountains. It was caught by a tiger. The mountain has not been destroyed these days, and it is not uncommon to have tigers.

Liu Tianling waved his hand: "So who, come here."

Lei Hu pointed to his nose: "Did you call me?"

"Yep."

Lei Hu came over, somewhat nervous.

"Hehe, I heard that you are very prestigious among the people nearby, isn't it?"

Lei Hu scratched his head: "That's right. I led people to kill more than a dozen wolves in the last few wolves. The folks respect us. If you like anything, let me take the lead."

"Is the gun accurate?" Liu Tianling asked.

"It's okay, the rabbits more than 100 meters away are basically shot one by one." Lei Hu shook the earthen gun in his hand.

Liu Tianling shook his head: "Your gun is just a gun, it has no rifling, and it will be inaccurate at any distance. How about trying my gun?"

Liu Tianling took a Mauser and handed it to Leihu. He was no stranger to guns and Leihu. He had played with Hanyang and was skilled at pulling the bolt. A big tit flew over from the sky, and Leihu shot it down with a bang.

Lei Hu scratched his head: "What, Captain, I'm sorry, my hand was itchy, and I accidentally fired a shot."

Tie Han glared: "Who asked the bird hunter? Didn't he take literacy classes? Birds eat bugs."

Liu Tianling smiled and said: "Okay, it's okay, I will lend you this gun first, you have to understand this matter psychologically, it is meaningless for untrained people to fight bandits except to increase casualties, so when you fight, you take the villagers behind you Get out of the way."

"I understand. To be honest, I don't want them to join in the fun. There is no way. There are dead people in every family. The anger is hard to dissipate. I will take them well."

Liu Tianling carefully told the folks that after the battle, the army entered the mountain. Compared with Baodugu, Shaoyao Mountain is only a small mountainous area, which is more than ten miles long. There are also many ancient wood wolf forests. In the hinterland of the mountain, the hill is not big, but the mountain is steep. There is only one road up the mountain. The rest are steep slopes with dense trees. In this season, machetes can only be used to open the road.

More than 100 soldiers and [-] strong men stopped two miles away from the old bear's den.

A fellow villager asked: "Why don't you leave? How can you beat the bandits if you are so timid?"

"If you don't believe me, try throwing a stone." Chai Fei said.

The fellow picked up a big rock and rolled it forward. A big pit appeared on the seemingly flat road. At the bottom of the pit was a sharp wooden stick. If a person fell into it, he would immediately become a dead body. The bandits are very relieved, but their own lives are also important.

"Fire the cannon, hit it hard." After Liu Tianling finished speaking, the officers went to rest nearby, and Tiehan led more than 20 guards and soldiers to set up five mortars.

Liu Erniang insisted on bringing someone to observe, because he knew that they might even be equipped with such weapons.

Tie Han was also willing to teach, and said with a smile: "The cannon is powerful and can hit far, but the arc he walks needs to learn to grasp the angle."

"What's an angle?" Liu Erniang asked.

Tie Han scratched his head, thought for a while and said, "It's the degree of tilting. You see, the cannon head is pointing at the old bear's den obliquely. The shell goes in and hits it in an arc."

I didn't understand what I said, and I didn't understand what I heard.

Liu Tianling asked Lei Hu to give the trumpet to Lei Hu, and asked Lei Hu to persuade the bandits to see if anyone was willing to surrender.

Lei Hu yelled for more than ten minutes, his voice became hoarse, and no one answered.

"Three-point burst." Following Tiehan's order, the five cannons were fired, and the shells drew an arc, and after more than ten seconds of flight, they landed inside and outside the wall of the village two miles away, and some of them missed. Yes, some of them have been corrected.Several bandits who did not hide well were killed on the spot.

But more shells just blasted rocks.

In the cave, Liu Heiqi and the bandit leaders were eating meat and drinking in big bowls: "Come on, let's eat and drink. Let the poor guys from the militia beat them. How many people will die if they fight until dark?" Ah, our brothers are all hiding."

The shells were fired unhurriedly, and then they fired once a minute and twice a minute.

Liu Erniang was in a hurry, she came to Liu Tianling's side, and asked, "Commander, isn't this a waste of shells? I guess the bandits have already hidden themselves."

Liu Tianling pointed at the old bear's den: "Look at this mountain, the mountain is steep, leading people to charge up, needless to say, the bandits shoot, they can kill people by rolling a few stones, if there is no such favorable location, the bandits can exist like this How long?"

Liu Erniang rolled her eyes, "Why don't we find a familiar mountain dweller and lead a team to sneak up there."

"Isn't it very clear what I said just now? The mountain is steep, but it's a lonely mountain. Does it have a defensive meaning? As long as we surround this place, the bandits will starve to death, so Liu Heiqi must break through from the small road, and It will be very fast, you must know that this cannon has a very shocking effect."

Lei Hu came over and said: "It's hard to say, there should be their warehouses and caves in this mountain, what if they have enough food, what should we do, should we besiege him here for a few months?"

Liu Tianling thought to himself, if there are several planes, even helicopters will do.

"Yes, Chai Fei, immediately send someone to fetch the big basket from the back seat of the commander's car." Liu Tianling slapped his head and came up with a good idea.
