Chapter 169 Peng Yuan is about to expand
In the Japanese military camp,
Peng Yuan watched as several soldiers excitedly tied the infantry guns to the back of the carriage. He was so excited that he felt dizzy.
I didn’t expect that he, a regiment commander, also had a cannon!
In addition to the infantry artillery, the other equipment of the 67 officers and soldiers of the regiment was also replaced with new ones. There was so much captured that they could not use up all the equipment, including clothes, shoes, rifles, machine guns, grenade launchers, ammunition, etc.!
A batch of equipment was also left for the women's group!
Jiang Yong ran over and found Yin Xinjun.
"Brother-in-law, I have to go home first. The brothers are ready. I have to persuade the old man to come with us!"
"Okay, you go back first. When you see Ningning, tell her that I'm with the Anti-Japanese League and will be back for dinner this afternoon!"
In fact, Yin Xinjun no longer cares whether Jiang Hailiang leaves or not. One of the two tasks that he cares about most has been completed!
Peng Yuan entered the house excitedly.
"Yan Wang, thank you so much this time. Not only did you save us, but you also brought us so many spoils!"
"Haha, Lao Peng, as long as you follow me, you don't have to worry about equipment and supplies! That's all my business!"
Peng Yuan scratched his head, not knowing what to say.
"Then when are we going to evacuate? I'm afraid it's still not safe here!"
Peng Yuan got the advantage and his instinct was to run away quickly.
"Don't leave in such a hurry. The team is already very tired. It's better to rest here for a night, replenish our energy, and set off tomorrow!"
"Yan Wang, I'm afraid the devils will gather troops to surround us again!"
"Haha, Captain Peng, we defeated all the Japanese and puppet troops on all sides this morning, and Diaoling Town is nearly 200 miles away from the county seat. The Japanese won't be that fast. Besides, it won't be too late for us to leave after they arrive!"
In fact, Yin Xinjun was looking forward to the arrival of the Japanese army. If the Japanese army dared to transfer troops from the county town, he could then attack the county town after defeating it!
But he looked at the map and realized that if he attacked Linkou County, it would mean continuing to move south, and he would have to take a long detour to return to Weihe!
There are two paths before Yin Xinjun. One is to return to Weihe and look for Kang Huaifu.
But after returning by this road, the enemy is heavily armed. Even if Kang Huaifu is found, there will not be much room for maneuver. He will definitely have to hide in the mountains and forests!
The second route is to go south to Linkou County, Mudanjiang City, cross the Binsui Railway, or continue south to find the 1st Route Army, or go west into Wuchang!
Yin Xinjun hasn’t figured out what to do next!
"Okay, I'll listen to you. We'll set off tomorrow morning!"
Yin Xinjun took out a map of Mudanjiang Province.
"Lao Peng, can you give me some advice? Where should we go next?"
Peng Yuan came over. Deep down in his heart, he definitely wanted to go back to the military headquarters and fight together with his old comrades!
Yin Xinjun pointed to the location of Weihe River and said,
"At present, all signs indicate that the enemy is constantly mobilizing troops to Weihe to encircle and suppress the Second Route Army!"
Peng Yuan said anxiously,
"Then let's hurry back to Weihe!"
Yin Xinjun shook his head and said,
"Don't worry, I've made preparations for Weihe River. Our troops won't be wiped out so easily!"
At this time, there was a burst of noise outside the door, and the guard Xiao Bao ran in.
"Captain, there are more than 20 villagers outside who want to join the Anti-Japanese United Army to fight the Japanese!"
Peng Yuan was surprised.
"I gonna go see!"
Yin Xinjun followed Peng Yuan to the yard.
I saw more than 20 young people, both men and women, talking to the soldiers.
"I want to join the Anti-Japanese United Army!"
"Comrades, please accept me. My brother was a soldier of the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces and has already died!"
Linkou has always been an active area of the Anti-Japanese United Army and has a relatively good mass base.
Yin Xinjun whispered,
"Old Peng, no matter how many people come, just accept them. There is strength in numbers!"
With Yan Wang's words, Peng Yuan somehow gained courage.
"Fellow villagers, I am Peng Yuan, the leader of the Anti-Japanese United Army. Since you want to fight the devils, I will accept you!"
Deafening cheers rang out.
Yin Xinjun stepped forward and added,
"Every family that joins the army will be given an additional 50 kilograms of flour!"
Another round of cheers of surprise!
The two returned to the house.
Yin Xinjun took out a stack of banknotes from his pocket.
"Lao Peng, this is what I just found in the Japanese military camp. Take it. To expand the team, you need money!"
Peng Yuan gratefully took the money.
"I don't know how to thank you for giving me so much money!"
"Thank you for nothing. Come with me to Linkou tomorrow and head to the county seat!"
The people’s enthusiasm for resisting the Japanese is as fiery as leeks, once you harvest them, another crop will come back!
In an instant, Yin Xinjun suddenly figured out the next overall plan!
That is to go south, continue to turn the enemy's rear upside down, and continue to light the flames of the anti-Japanese war all over the Northeast!
Of course, if the troops are to move south, they cannot do so without Peng Yuan’s joint operations!
In terms of character, Peng Yuan is a man who values friendship and loyalty, and is reluctant to abandon his comrades in distress. From this point of view, he is a friend worth making close friends with!
"Attack Linkou? Oh my god, I haven't even attacked a county town yet!"
Yin Xinjun said lightly,
"Follow me, and you'll get used to it slowly!"
After a simple lunch,
The two discussed the map for a long time! Then they talked about the police who revolted and surrendered. Yin Xinjun agreed to incorporate them all into Peng Yuan's regiment!
After Yin Xinjun left,
Peng Yuan began to think about it.
There are still more than 60 people in the regiment, including those who joined the army and those who rebelled and surrendered. A rough calculation shows that there are more than 130 people. Now the military strength is almost twice as much as before!
Peng Yuan couldn't help but hum a tune proudly!
Sihe Village,
Jiang's backyard,
Jiang Yong and Sai Mulan, together, tried to persuade Jiang Hailiang.
Jiang Hailiang was so sad that he had no tears. He didn't expect his son to suddenly rebel. Now, the good days of the whole family are over!
He began to tremble all over when he thought of the brutality of the Japanese.
"Son, you are really good. You dug a hole for your father without making any noise!"
"Dad, once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. You should pack your bags quickly because we have to leave early tomorrow morning!"
"Can't you give me two more days? I can even sell the house!"
"Dad, I'll give you some time. Will the Japs agree? They could come anytime. We better leave quickly!"
Jiang Hailiang sighed deeply and quickly packed up his valuables such as gold and silver.
Jiang Yong called all the guards and servants over, explained the situation directly, and asked everyone about their plans.
Those who are willing to join us in fighting the Japanese are welcome. Those who are not willing will be paid their wages and given 100 yuan for travel expenses!
The eight guards and servants chose to join the fight against the Japanese without hesitation. These servants were all bandits or Northeastern Army soldiers, and they had nowhere to go, so they might as well follow their boss first!
