Chapter 164: The Bandits Talk
"Withering Order?!"
Yuan Shuai snorted coldly and pulled out the revolver with his right hand.
Everyone behind him raised their guns.
"Do you need another transfer order?"
Yuan Shuai's words frightened Captain Wu so much that he snorted coldly on his back.
Although his battalion had more than four hundred people.
But their team has more than 800 people and many light and heavy machine guns.
How dare he disobey?
He could only swallow his guilty saliva and nodded with a stiff smile.
"I'll take people back right away!"
After saying that, he quickly called on the team to turn around and run back, and even sped up to run forward.
After all, he didn't want to bear the responsibility of disobeying orders.
The deputy battalion commander hurriedly followed, muttering softly.
"Captain, where do these Black Wolf soldiers come from?"
Although the 62nd Division evolved from the Hunan Army, there are some Cantonese in the team. Even their current division commander is from Guangdong. They speak Cantonese to avoid being overheard.
"Fuck him, I don't know what to do! These guys don't look like soldiers at all, but bandits. Tell the signalman to speed up and turn back to report the situation to the commander! Otherwise, I will be blamed!"...
In the distance ahead is the headquarters camp of the 62nd Division.
When the commander heard the news, he was so angry that he slammed the table and cursed.
"Wu Family Property, where did the Black Wolf Army come from? How dare they give orders to my troops!"
"Commander, I heard that it was this Black Wolf Army that shot down the Japanese planes at the train station a few days ago. Also, they fought a battle in Dachang before and killed a lot of Japanese!"
The staff officer quickly reminded.
Commander Tao Lu was suddenly stunned.
"Damn it, if you hadn't reminded me, I would have almost forgotten. This Black Wolf Army is really powerful. Not only did they shoot down the Japanese planes, they also withdrew from the Japanese encirclement. Who is the commander of the Black Wolf Army? What military academy did he graduate from?"
"We haven't done a thorough investigation yet, but according to rumors, they are from the Northwest Army and are very good at fighting. Since they are here, why not let them help us guard Jinshanwei!"
Hearing this, Tao Lu's eyes lit up and he said with a smile.
"That's a good idea. Tell them to prepare food for them! I want to see how capable the Black Wolf Army is!"...
When Yuan Shuai passed a small town on the way, he suddenly stopped and asked someone to call over the two regiment leaders, Lu Huawei and Jiang Zhengwu.
"Boss, what's going on!"
Although both captains were older than Yuan Shuai, especially Jiang Zhengwu, who was already 31 years old, he understood that the Black Wolf Army was originally composed of bandits. Since they followed Yuan Shuai, they had to follow the rules of the Black Wolf Army and call Yuan Shuai the boss.
Although he felt very uncomfortable, in order to keep his brothers alive and kill more Japanese devils, face was nothing. Lu Hua didn't care about face anymore, so Jiang Zhengwu didn't care either.
Yuan Shuai looked at the people in the town and said while gritting his teeth.
"Drive all the people out of this town!?"
"What?!"
"Drive the people away!?"
"Boss, the military and civilians are like one family. We still rely on them to provide us with food. How can we drive them away?"
"That's right. We are here to fight the devils and protect them. How can we chase them away? Wouldn't that make the people feel disappointed?"
Lu Huahua and Jiang Zhengwu immediately refuted.
Yuan Shuai pulled them both aside and whispered softly.
"Once Jinshanwei is breached, these civilians will be unarmed and will die if they stay here!"
"Aren't we already here?"
"Isn't there the 62nd Division here? We can help the 62nd Division defend Jinshanwei!"
Lu Huahua and Jiang Zhengwu were puzzled.
"Did you hold the big field?"
Yuan Shuai's words made the two of them look at each other awkwardly, and then they lowered their heads.
Especially Lu Hua, he knows better than Jiang Zhengwu.
In the later period of the battle, it was basically the Gui army that defended the battlefield, and they even launched a counterattack, but unfortunately they still couldn't hold it.
So many people can’t defend the big field, can this Jinshanwei defend it?
They are unsure.
Especially since even Yuan Shuai said so, they felt even more uncertain.
They just couldn't bring themselves to drive the people away.
"Damn it, you just joined my Black Wolf Army and you don't obey orders! Hu Dacai, Jiang Dagui, take action!"
"Got it!"
Hu Dacai and Jiang Dagui each pulled out their revolvers and fired into the air.
"Listen up, everyone. This place has been requisitioned. Everyone, evacuate. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences!"
"All villagers must leave the town, and notify the people in the surrounding villages to leave. This area has been requisitioned!"
Hu Dacai used to be a bandit.
He shouted and his men started firing at the roof tiles.
The villagers in the town were so scared that they screamed and hid.
Some of the timid ones quickly went home to pack up and leave.
But the news soon reached the mayor.
The mayor quickly arranged for someone to call the commander of the 62nd Division, and ran over with his men.
"Soldier, you are here to protect the people. How can you shoot at us civilians?"
The mayor rushed over and pointed at Yuan Shuai’s nose and cursed.
"Old man, you see clearly, my men only shot at the tiles, not at the civilians!"
"You are just quibbling. The tiles belong to the people. If you shoot at the tiles, you are shooting at the people! I'm going to sue you!"
Upon hearing this, all the members of the Black Wolf Army were stunned.
However, Yuan Shuai was not angry but explained with a smile.
"Old man, seeing that you are wearing glasses, you are an intellectual and a reasonable person, right!"
"Of course, if you are right, you can go anywhere, but if you are wrong, you can't go anywhere!"
The old mayor held his head high and chest puffed out proudly, even stroking his beard with his right hand.
"Well, I like to reason with reasonable people. You are right. Reasons are everywhere in the world, but unreasonable people can't take a single step. But did the devil reason with us? The devil robbed our three northeastern provinces. How many square inches are there in the three northeastern provinces? The devil entered Songhu. Did he reason with us? Can we make sense of them? How much of Shanghai did they occupy? How many square inches are there!"
"..."
The old mayor was so angry that his face turned blue. He pointed at Yuan Shuai's nose with his trembling right finger and cursed.
"You, you, are you going to kill us civilians like the Japanese?"
"No, no, we, the Black Wolf Army, are here to fight the Japs, but we need a place to fight. If you stay here and the Japs come here, we will have to protect you while you retreat, and fight the Japs at the same time. How can we handle it? As the saying goes, the military and the people are one family, you should support us, shouldn't you support us!"
"You fight the devils, of course we support you..."
Before the old mayor finished speaking, Yuan Shuai interrupted.
"Since you support us, you should support us with actions. Don't hinder us from fighting the Japanese, and don't hold us back! Do you want to hinder us from fighting the Japanese or hold us back?"
"Of course not, but..."
"But what do you mean by but, old man? I'm telling you, the enemy's naval guns can fire up to 20 kilometers away. You are all within the coverage of the enemy's naval guns and must retreat. My men were a little anxious just now, but time is running out. If I don't do this, can you retreat? You are old. Once the shells fly over, can you still run? I know you are not afraid of death and are reluctant to leave your home, but what about us? We left our hometown and came all the way here. Can we be willing to leave our homes?"
