Chapter 65 Chapter 61: Soldiers Group Fight

The devil had completely lost the capital to make a comeback, so Mu Liangfeng felt relieved and took his brothers back.Back in the cave, Mu Liangfeng and his brothers looked at each other eagerly at the villagers, not knowing how to tell everyone about the burning of the village. It was Agui who took the lead: "Folks, we have chased the devil away." The villagers were very happy when they heard that the devil had left, and packed up their things to go to the village. "Folks, listen to me first." Agui scratched his head: "However, the devil set the village on fire."

The mountain people were dumbfounded when they heard that the village was burned, and the women began to cry and shout: "God damn Japanese devils, where can we live now? "Let's build the house again. If we don't leave today, we will help everyone build the house." Mu Liangfeng comforted everyone.The Chinese New Year is half a month away. If we don't hurry up and build a house, the villagers may have to sleep in the open. Fortunately, the rain kept falling, and the fire was contained. When we returned to the village, the fire was basically extinguished.Almost half of the houses in the village were burnt down, and everyone cleaned them up briefly, and there are still some houses that can live in.

After placing the women, the elderly and children in the cleared houses, more than 40 national army soldiers and young adults in the village began to build houses. Mu Liangfeng looked at Lingzi Hamada and said, "Did you see that? This is your people did it!" Hamada Reiko lowered her head and did not speak, but her expression was full of guilt and uneasiness. "But you can't blame her, she is different from those devils." The woman helped Hamada Lingzi to speak.Her child has recovered after taking the medicine given by Hamada Reiko. Mu Liangfeng said: "I don't blame her, I just told her what her compatriots did when they came to our country."

"Why did they do this?" Reiko Hamada asked in his heart in puzzlement. What he had seen and heard these days was not at all what he had heard from the Japanese military propaganda in China—obviously, he had been deceived.The anger of being deceived and the guilt towards the Chinese were intertwined, and Hamada Lingzi was in a state of confusion. She didn't know how to face this young Chinese officer who had saved her. Early the next morning, Mu Liangfeng assembled his troops.After a busy day, everyone finally built a few new huts, and the villagers finally had a place where they could temporarily settle down.When the troops were about to go on the road, the two young mountain people came to join the army with the rifles issued to them by Mu Liangfeng. Mu Liangfeng admires him very much and wants to fight devils with him.

Mu Liangfeng saw hatred and courage in their eyes, and agreed without saying a word. Watched by the villagers, more than 40 Chinese soldiers disappeared into the forest with a Japanese woman. It was already late at night when we returned to the county seat, and we were very tired after a long day of driving.The gate of the county seat was closed, and Ah Gui stood under the gate and shouted, "Brothers above, come down and open the gate for us." The garrison battalion of Battalion Commander Wan was still stationed on the top of the city, so he couldn't see what was going on below.During this period of war, no one dared to open the door rashly.

Several soldiers stood on the city wall and asked, "Which part are you from?" "We are the first company of the 98th Division Special Agent Regiment, and we just came back from our mission." Agui shouted loudly. "The first company of the Secret Service Regiment? Is it the company of Commander Mu?" the soldiers above were asking. "Our company commander is Mu Liangfeng." Several flashlights shot down, and it was clear that the leader of the team was indeed Mu Liangfeng, and the leader of the soldiers immediately said: "Company Commander Mu, wait a moment, the brothers will open the door."

After a while, the city gate opened and a dozen soldiers with torches ran out.The leader was the security platoon leader who blocked the way last time. He smiled and led a few of his men to pass cigarettes to everyone: "Company Commander Mu, you and your brothers have worked hard." Mu Liangfeng took a cigarette and imitated taking a sip. The platoon leader laughed and said: "Commander Mu, you became our officer in a blink of an eye, but my brother and I have been working together for two years and are still a small platoon leader. Why don't all the brothers mess with you."

Mu Liangfeng asked him with a smile: "How are your Battalion Commander Wan and his old man?" The security platoon leader said: "Battalion Commander Wan and his old man have been taken to Liuzhou. They are expected to be imprisoned, and they won't be able to get out for a while." Mu Liangfeng nodded: "The fate of the traitor." "By the way, Company Commander Mu, a group of brothers from your company fought with members of the 36th Army at the gate of the city the day before yesterday." The security platoon leader suddenly remembered this incident when he saw that Mu Liangfeng and the others were about to leave.

Mu Liangfeng was taken aback: "What? Why are there fights?" "I'm not sure about this, and I almost touched the guy later, but fortunately the military police in the security area arrived, otherwise it would really mess up the set." The platoon leader didn't know whether it was sarcasm or genuine admiration: "Your brother is really good!" No, about a hundred people dare to fight with the two artillery companies of the 36th Army." Mu Liangfeng was in a hurry, Chen Dugu and his group made trouble for themselves. "What happened later?" Meng Zi and Xiao Wu were also anxious: "Did we even suffer?"

The security platoon leader said: "Ten people were wounded on both sides. Fortunately, no one wounded the wounded." "Damn it, go find them to settle the score. These bastards are not good at beating devils, but beating up their own brothers is very exciting." Xiao Wu saw that his brothers had suffered a loss, so he almost jumped up. The security platoon leader said: "The military police arrested dozens of soldiers who led the disturbance, and they are still locked up! The regimental leaders on both sides have stood up, and it seems that no one is convinced, and they are now suing the higher authorities."

When Mu Liangfeng heard that this was a big deal, he was in no mood to listen to this kid's violent talk, and ran back to the regiment headquarters with his brothers. The people in the city had already rested, and the county town was silent, only the sound of soldiers running forward could be heard. The door of the regiment headquarters was open. When the guards saw Mu Liangfeng and the others running in, they didn't stop them, but said, "Report to Company Commander Mu, the regiment commander is not here." "Where is the head?" "The head of the regiment went to the division headquarters in the afternoon and hasn't come back yet." Just as he was speaking, Chief of Staff Wu of the regiment came out, and Mu Liangfeng and the soldiers stood at attention and saluted.Seeing Mu Liang meet them, Chief of Staff Wu turned his face and said, "Boy, are you finally willing to come back? If you don't come back, the regiment leader will shoot you." "Hey, Chief of Staff Wu, what's the matter?" Mu Liangfeng was very familiar with the head of the regiment, and everyone had a good relationship, so he asked Chief of Staff Wu with a shy face. Chief of Staff Wu looked at the exhausted looks of the soldiers, gestured his fingers twice on their faces, and choked back the words: "I am too lazy to talk about you now, wait for the regiment leader to clean up you slowly. Cooking class, make some food for these bastards, don't starve to death before the head cleans them up." Monk Mu Liangfeng and Zhang Er couldn't figure it out, but Chief of Staff Wu stopped there and turned around to leave. "Chief of Staff, what should we do if we captured a Japanese female doctor on the way?" It was only then that Chief of Staff Wu noticed that there was a woman in the company's team. He thought for a while and said, "Send her to the dormitory for female soldiers at the regimental hospital first, and let her stay with the female soldiers for one night. Other matters will wait for the regimental commander." Come back and talk about it!" When Hamada Lingzi heard that she was going to be escorted to another place, she was anxious and afraid, she subconsciously grabbed Mu Liangfeng, and begged him for the first time: "Commander Mu, please don't let them take me away, okay?" ?” Mu Liangfeng said: "Don't worry, you have never hurt the Chinese, and we will never hurt you. The place you are going to is the female barracks, so don't worry." He turned around and told Agui to accompany Hamada Lingzi Go to the regiment hospital. Hamada Lingzi looked at Mu Liangfeng pitifully, she was about to be handed over to other places as a prisoner of war.These days, she has been with these Chinese soldiers day and night, and she trusts them emotionally. She can't accept that she will be placed in a completely strange place all of a sudden. Chief of Staff Wu said: "You guys eat first! If you have something to do, wait until the head of the regiment comes back." After speaking, he turned and left. The food in the cooking class of the regiment headquarters was really good, and the movements were also agile. They cooked meals for everyone in a short while: fragrant white rice and stewed pork with cabbage.Everyone was really hungry, and when they saw the food, they devoured it hungrily.After dinner, Mu Liangfeng asked the guard at the regiment headquarters: "Brother, do you know why the regiment commander and the chief of staff are so angry?" The guard said: "The regiment commander said that you are dereliction of duty and want to be the king of the mountain. He said that you are a dignified company commander of the national army, like a Communist guerrilla, leading people to fight guerrillas in the mountains, leaving the large troops alone. You guys, it’s good for you, you have withdrawn all the communication teams.” "That's it?" Mu Liangfeng asked the guard. The guard nodded, looked around to see if there was no one else, and said, "Actually, the regimental commander and the chief of staff cared about you and got angry because they were afraid that something might happen to you in the mountains. In the past two days, because of your company and the soldiers of the 36th Army The head of the group got angry a lot." Mu Liangfeng felt as if a five-flavored bottle had been broken in his heart. He asked Agui to take Hamada Lingzi to the regiment health team, and he and his brothers went back to the company. On the way to accompany Hamada Lingzi to the regiment hospital, Agui saw her nervous face and comforted her, saying, "Don't be afraid, my sister Ahui is also there, I'll let her take care of you." He doesn't hate this at all now The Japanese girl is gone, and I even feel a little pitiful about her. "Your sister is there too?" Hamada Reiko looked at Agui with wide eyes. "Really, why did I lie to you?" Agui said, "My sister and I were rescued by the company commander." Reiko Hamada became interested when she heard this, she knew that the simple and honest Chinese soldier next to him would never lie. Agui told how Mu Liangfeng rescued their siblings from Mr. Wan. This story is full of legends. Hamada Lingzi had only read such stories in books before. She was fascinated by the heroic spirit of the hero in the story. After a while, he said, "Your company commander is really amazing." "Of course!" Agui was happier when he heard others praise his company commander than himself. He said proudly: "Our company commander is not only good at marksmanship, but also good at fighting. He also has a good heart. He treats us just like himself. Just like brothers, there is no airs at all..." Hamada Lingzi looked at Agui who was talking about the hype, and found it very interesting. This soldier usually doesn't talk much, but when he talks about his company commander, he seems to be a different person. "Who is older, you or your company commander?" Agui thought for a while and said, "I am one month older than our company, and I am 20 years old this year." Reiko Hamada smiled and said: "Then the three of us are of the same age, and I am also 20 years old this year." In front of this Chinese soldier of her own age, she also talked more. "Really?" Agui was happy, as if it was such a happy event for others to be the same age as him. Reiko Hamada nodded: "Your company commander is so young! This is the first time I saw such a young second lieutenant." "Yes! Our company commander is definitely the youngest company commander in the entire division or even the entire army." As Agui was speaking, the dormitory for female soldiers in the regimental hospital was close at hand.The female soldiers were all asleep, and Agui knocked on the door for a long time before anyone came out. Everyone knew Agui, and saw him leading a girl over in the middle of the night, and they all gathered around to watch the fun. Ahui also came out, seeing that her brother had returned safely. , very happy: "Brother, you are back! Who is she?" Agui told the story a bit, and the female soldiers were not happy when they heard that she was a female Japanese devil. Later, they became more friendly when they heard that she had saved a Chinese child. "All of you can't bully her! This is an order from the regiment headquarters." Agui chuckled. She was afraid that the female soldiers would bully the Japanese female military doctor, and falsely spread the imperial edict that it was an order from the regiment headquarters.After confessing for a while, he went back to the company with peace of mind. When Mu Liangfeng returned to the company, the brothers in the company had already fallen asleep.Seeing that the company commander and other brothers had come back safely, the soldiers coaxed them out of bed. "Where's Chen Dagu?" "Platoon leader Chen was arrested and sent to the Gendarmerie Command." The soldiers chattered. "What happened to the fight?" "When we came back the day before yesterday, we met people from the 36th Army at the gate of the city. They hit one of our wounded soldiers first, and then scolded us for falling while fleeing for our lives. Brothers got angry and fought with them. As a result, they More and more, platoon leader Chen moved his gun..." "What? You still fired the gun?" Mu Liangfeng was annoyed when he heard it: "This Chen Dugu is getting more and more courageous, and he's making a move with his own people." The soldiers said: "But we just shot into the sky, and didn't hit their people. The gendarmerie came and captured platoon leader Chen and a dozen brothers. Some people from the 36th Army were also arrested. " Mu Liangfeng looked at his brothers, feeling very annoyed. The bastards from the 36th Army were really underwhelming. The brothers obviously fought the devils to the death, but they were scolded as deserters. Had he been there, they would have fought hard.But now is an extraordinary period. This matter can be big or small. I don't know how the higher-ups will deal with it. Maybe they will drag the soldiers who took the lead in the trouble to the back mountain and shoot them indiscriminately. "Company Commander, what should we do? Platoon Leader Chen and the others are doing this for the sake of the brothers!" Mu Liangfeng couldn't find the head of the regiment, and there was nothing he could do. He said, "Everyone, go to bed first! If the head of the regiment doesn't come back tomorrow, you can go with me to the gendarmerie to ask for someone." Commander Liu came back early the next morning, but it was not like what the guards said: the division commander left him drinking, but held a military meeting.The war was about to break out. Hundreds of thousands of elite divisions gathered in the south of Guangxi and approached the Kunlun Pass. One division each of the 36th Army and the 38th Army marched to the vicinity of the county town. The number of soldiers in the city increased suddenly. People, the county is full of excitement.Fights and disturbances among soldiers occurred from time to time. The 98th Division is a Class A division. The division has two brigades, four infantry regiments, one cavalry regiment, one artillery regiment, one special service regiment, one battalion each for engineers and supplies, one company for sanitation and one company for communication, 3508 horses, and 6127 rifles , 800 submachine guns, 258 light machine guns, 78 heavy machine guns, 29 mortars, 27 infantry guns, 40 field guns, and 100 grenadiers, belonging to the real ace troops. The 98th Division has the most powerful combat effectiveness and the best equipment with the special mission regiment.If it is subdivided into all levels of the regiment, the battalion company that starts with the word "Battle" is the strongest. It can be seen how much regimental commander Liu entrusts Mu Liangfeng with this burden, and how much he values ​​him. As soon as the head of the regiment came back, he urgently summoned officers above the company level to the regiment headquarters for a meeting. There were 6 battalion commanders and deputy battalion commanders, 9 company commanders, and an independent transport company commander. Regiment deputy, everyone crowded the meeting room of the regiment headquarters.Commander Liu has a slender figure, handsome features, and looks gentle, but at the moment his face is serious. After seeing everyone sitting down, his first order is: remove Mu Liangfeng from the post of company commander, and his company commander The post was temporarily replaced by Wang Dachuan, and Mu Liangfeng was demoted to be the deputy of the company and the platoon leader of the first platoon. Mu Liangfeng was dumbfounded when he heard the team leader's decision.He originally thought that the regimental commander would at best just scold him, but he didn't expect to withdraw his company commander!Just this time, he completed the tasks of the regiment headquarters in a row, chased down the bandits and deserters, blew up the Japanese convoy, disabled two devil squadrons, and killed two devil squadron leaders. It's a balance of merit and demerit.This is good, the company commander has withdrawn for him, and he can't help feeling wronged in his heart. Seeing his displeasure, Head Liu got angry and patted the table to stand up: "You disregarded the overall situation and didn't obey the command. You're fine if you didn't get killed this time! Are you still not convinced?" Mu Liangfeng argued in a low voice: "I didn't disobey the command? The regiment asked us to chase the bandits, so we chased the bandits, and we bombed the convoy. How can this be regarded as disobeying the command?" "Then let me ask you, why did you order the main force of the company to withdraw and fight guerrillas on the mountain by yourself. Traveling around the mountains and rivers, but with your company alone, can you drive away the Japanese devils?" Mu Liangfeng wanted to explain the situation to the head of the regiment, but Chief of Staff Wu who was standing behind the head kept giving him winks, and Battalion Commander Li who was sitting next to him even kicked him under the table. Only then did he stop, and asked the head of the group to give a harsh training in a low voice. Commander Liu saw that his attitude of admitting his mistakes was not bad, so he didn't delve into it further, and then assigned the next task: "I had a meeting with the division headquarters yesterday, and the counterattack is about to start in full swing. The troops should step up their rest and take care of themselves during this time Soldiers, if another incident like gang fights happens again, we will definitely be punished severely. Did you all hear clearly?" "yes!" The meeting lasted another hour. When the meeting was about to end, Captain Liu looked at Mu Liangfeng and said, "Commander Mu, no, it should be Deputy Mu. What's your opinion on this incident of soldiers beating?" When Mu Liang met the head of the regiment mentioning this matter, he became angry: "The people of the 36th Army are really not good people. We have narrowly escaped death this time, but we were scolded as deserters. If I were present, we would fight as usual." "Presumptuous!" Commander Liu was annoyed: "You have no way to lead the troops, and you dare to say such stupid words. If it wasn't for the division commander's strong protection this time, Chen Dugu would have to be shot." Mu Liangfeng thought for a while, and held back his anger: "Leader, even if there is a mistake, it's all on my fault. The brothers played well this time. I will give them credit, and the regiment should reward them." Head Liu thought for a while and said: "Even if you played well, you shouldn't take credit for it. The gendarmerie investigation concluded that your Chen Dagu lost the reason first, and the person you bumped into first, and even scolded others for not having eyes and beating them up." , People from the 36th Army just started fighting. What is the nature of this? These soldiers will go to heaven no matter what they do!" Battalion Commander Li is Mu Liangfeng's direct boss. Because Mu Liangfeng took office not long ago, the tasks he accepted were all directly ordered by the regiment headquarters, so he didn't deal with much, but this matter involved his own interests. Of course, Battalion Commander Li helped Mu Liangfeng. When Liangfeng spoke, he said cautiously: "Tuan Zuo, no matter what, they have made a contribution this time. We should reward and boost morale." Commander Liu turned his face up: "You can do whatever you want if you have credit? Can you disobey orders if you have credit? The soldiers below are so arrogant. It's because you, the bastard battalion commander, didn't take care of you. I didn't deal with you, but you helped them say hello!" Talk." Battalion Commander Li didn't dare to say any more. Head Liu lost his temper and said, "Mu Liangfeng, go back and write a battle report to the regiment headquarters." Mu Liangfeng finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the head of the group finally expressed his conscience. "Leader, what about Chen Dugu and the others?" "Shut up for two days, and then you go to the gendarmerie to lead the people." Commander Liu glared, "From now on, manage your soldiers well. If this kind of thing happens again, the regiment headquarters will definitely punish you severely and will never protect you." Mu Liangfeng was also very angry, thinking about when he was so angry in the 204 regiment? After the meeting came out, the brothers from the company lined up at the gate of the regiment. Mu Liangfeng turned his face and looked at his brother, deliberately "teaching" the soldiers loudly: "You just make trouble for me, no matter how good the battle is, you won't get any credit for it." Several battalion and company commanders who came out together obviously heard that he said this to the regiment commander, so they pushed him out of the regiment headquarters compound: "You still owe it!" After leaving the regiment headquarters compound, Mu Liangfeng became more and more angry as he thought about it. He said to several battalion and company commanders: "Everyone comment, we have lost nearly a hundred brothers in this battle. They criticized us for being worthless, and everyone said they were wronged?" His eyes were red as he spoke, as if the more than one hundred dead brothers were right in front of him. When the brothers in the company heard that Mu Liangfeng's company commander had been withdrawn, they were excited and asked to go to the regiment headquarters to intercede with the commander. Battalion Commander Li roared: "Do you think me and your company commander are not unlucky enough, right? If you go to the regiment headquarters to make trouble now, you will have to be locked up." "Who did it first the day before yesterday?" Mu Liangfeng asked the soldiers under him with wide eyes.Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, not daring to speak. "Tell me quickly." A soldier lowered his head: "We did it first." Mu Liangfeng pointed at them, too angry to speak.It was because of their actions that the entire company's credit was wiped out. "What are you still doing in a daze? Come with me to the gendarmerie to pick up people." Mu Liangfeng roared, and the soldiers stopped talking, and followed Mu Liangfeng with their heads shrugged like children who had done something wrong.
