Chapter 15 third quarter

Commander Ga led Ji Hongchang's troops around the mountain like followers.It has always been like this when the officers and soldiers suppressed the bandits. The people of all ethnic groups in the Gannan Mountains saw how the white wolf fought against the officers and soldiers. Be the king in Hezhou City, play hide-and-seek in Gannan Mountain." Not only was Ji Hongchang not angry, but he also yelled, "Good, good singing."The mountain people became more courageous and deliberately teased Ji Hongchang, "General, Ma Zhongying jumped off the cliff, why are you chasing him? He didn't jump here."

"The white wolf has been here, I'm looking for the white wolf." "White Wolf defeated Feng Yuxiang here." All the mountain people laughed. The officers and soldiers of the national army were all bored, and they stretched out their hands to the ghost-headed knife on the back of their necks. Ji Hongchang glared, and everyone retracted their hands. Ji Hongchang said loudly: "Soldiers eat food!" , should be on an errand." No one knew that this was the hero who broke the white wolf back then.The White Wolf used all his prestige in Gannan and fled into the Qinling Mountains of Shaanxi. Just when he was about to enter the Guanzhong and claim hegemony, he was suddenly attacked by Ji Hongchang.The mountain people don't know these distant stories, they only believe what happened around them.

Ji Hongchang stationed a troop in Xiahe Zhuoni, repaired bridges and roads, resettled refugees, and took special care of Hui people. When wars broke out, ethnic vendettas were unavoidable. Ji Hongchang's troops were doing resettlement work one by one.Fewer and fewer Muslims followed Commander Ga, and the Huis said that Feng Yuxiang was blind and replaced Liu Yufen with Ji Hongchang to save the common people from suffering. Ji Hongchang's main force came out day and night, quietly ambush at Di Daokou, and only the local security team remained in Didao County. The white wolf army went straight to Lanzhou from here.The officers and soldiers thought that the white wolves were going to attack Lanzhou, so they all gathered in Lanzhou. The white wolves made a circle in Didao, turned around and headed east. Shaanxi was in a hurry, and Xi'an was exposed in front of the white wolves. The whole country was shocked.This time Commander Ga's intention was seen through again by Ji Hongchang.If Ma Zhongying occupied Didao, he could add more troops and food, and attack Lanzhou. If Lanzhou did not go down, he could bypass Lanzhou and go straight to Ningxia. The rich Ningxia was a paradise for Ma Zhongying.Ji Hongchang passed by Ningxia when he first aided Gansu and knew the strategic significance of Ningxia.Back then, White Wolf beat west to east, and Ma Zhongying beat east to west.

"Black Tiger Sucks Feng Jun" drove to Didao, the city was full of poorly equipped security regiments, and there was no regular army to defend. Commander Ga handed over the task of siege to the deputy commander, "A security team, you go and solve it. If you break the city, you are not allowed to mess around." Commander Ga is tired, Commander Ga goes to bed. The deputy commander led the team to attack the city.These security groups are tough, although they have no heavy weapons, they are just broken rifles and a few machine guns. A subgun, once fired, will knock down a large number of people.The deputy commander has been shaved, and it’s time to play two shots. Take off your shirt, pick up a big guillotine for herdsmen, bring a death squad, and rush up, the shooting on the city will be tight all of a sudden. Hit down from different angles, weave a firepower net, and knock down the death squads under the city wall.The deputy commander was shot in the leg, and he didn't retreat, standing straight, another shot was fired from the city, and the big guillotine fell to the ground with a clang, and with another shot, the deputy commander spat out a stream of blood with a "wow", After spitting up the blood, he "thumped" and fell to the ground.The rustic spirit of the army suddenly dropped a few feet.

When Commander Ga heard this, he became angry, "Cucumbers with weak heads are useless, and those who are limping cannot go to the city. They vomit blood and vomit several liters, and how many people have lost me." Commander Ga stood up and down the slope and ordered, "There is a man in the north of the city. Tudundun, it is ten times higher than the city wall. The team retreated to the north of the city, set up the barracks and then attacked the city. Brothers, sleep well, gather enough energy to break the way, and you will succeed at noon. If you want to fight, fight Ji Hongchang , the local security corps won’t do it.” On the high slope in the north of Didao City, tens of thousands of people “hulala” lay down, lying down, sleeping, and Commander Ga really missed Ji Hongchang, who was also the national army. Liu Yufen hides in Buli City, Lanzhou, Zhao Xipin shrinks back in Hezhou City to play prestige, Tong Linge and Dai Jingyu lose one after another, and suddenly Ji Hongchang comes, who can fight tough battles and buy people's hearts, Commander Ga gets more and more angry Da, asked his soldiers loudly, "Tell me, who is the Black Tiger Star?" He Zhou replied with a laugh, "Both of you are Black Tiger Stars. Lord Yan will hide when he sees you." Commander Ga sat He gritted his teeth on the stone, "With him but without me, with me without him, I will never be soft when we meet this time." The younger brother Ma Zhongjie said: "Ma Bufang has bullied us for so many years, but you haven't gritted your teeth." "Ma Bufang he No, I will fight with a hero, I will not fight with a bastard, Ma Bufang is nothing." Ma Zhongjie said: "Give me a team, and I will break the city." Commander Ga laughed, "Brother, you But for the brother of Commander Ga, a security team is nothing, so ask others to do it, and if you encounter a tough battle in the future, I will give you a chance."

When the sun was in the sky, when the trumpet was blown and the troops were raised, Commander Ga was very sad when he saw the majestic army marching down the mountain, "Go to fight the security regiment, and the tiger eats cakes, what's the matter?" Commander Ga flicked the rope and reached the bottom of the city. Ma shouted: "Ji Hongchang! Ji Hongchang! Why don't you come?" The head of the city burst into laughter, and Ji Hongchang really came out.The army under the city was stunned with an oh sound, only Commander Ga was ecstatic, he swung his whip upwards, turned his head and shouted to everyone: "Ji Hongchang is here, go and catch Ji Hongchang." Ji Hongchang on the top of the city Hong Chang smiled slightly, raised his white-gloved hand upwards, guns fired, and fired at the top of the city and outside the city, casting countless fire nets.

Commander Ga was full of energy, and suddenly he got rid of the lethargy.Ever since he jumped off the high cliff and fled around, he has been so soft and nonchalant. When the artillery fire hit him, Commander Ga became a good man again. Open your mouth and break out.Commander Ga still remembered his promise to his younger brother and handed over the team to his twelve-year-old younger brother.This is the serious baby commander, with a childish face, holding a pony gun, riding a tall horse, "Brothers, follow me!" He rushed up first, and the team was thrown out by this teenage boy like a whip .

"Brother, my good brother, I know you can do it as soon as I tell you." Ma Zhongjie rushed to the gate, the bullets were like rainstorm.A solitary paulownia tree stood on the hillside, as tall and as big as a pillar between heaven and earth. Ma Zhongjie slowly climbed up the tree, and in the blink of an eye, he turned into a little squirrel and ran to the top of the tree. The little carbine followed the bird They also yelled happily from the top of the tree. After nine calls, the machine gun on the mountain pass was choked, and the team at the bottom of the mountain rushed up.Soon to the last line of defense.The mountain is full of broadsword teams of the national army. They are all big men from the Central Plains who are proficient in martial arts, and they are dancing with ghost swords.The army couldn't go any further.

Ji Hongchang came on horseback and took the Ghost Head Saber from his back, "Ma Zhongying saw it clearly. This is the big knife I used to kill the white wolf. I haven't used it for more than ten years. You are so lucky." Commander Ga His eyes were shining, and he rushed forward with great interest, the swords and swords met, sparks flew, and after more than a dozen rounds, no matter whose sword was used, no one could take the opponent's head. Can't get it right!Go back to each battalion, regroup and fight again. In this disastrous defeat, Ma Zhongying's entire army was almost wiped out. Hundreds of people rushed out and fled into the mountains.

Ji Hongchang aims to capture Ma Zhongying alive.A capable swordsman team held on to Commander Ga, and quickly retreated Commander Ga to a desperate situation.Behind him is the Taohe River, a big snow-capped mountain, and the cold air is threatening a few miles away.Commander Ga is riding a yellow puma given by the great lama, yellow puma, oh yellow puma, the glacier is the sea of ​​suffering in the world, right?Commander Ga jumped on his horse, and he sank to the bottom of the river with his horse.The national army and Tibetans on both sides of the strait saw the lion-like Commander Ga jumping from the cliff into the surging river.Tibetans can't help chanting scriptures to save the dead.The surging glaciers, not to mention people, even beasts in the mountains will freeze and drown if they fall into the river.People quickly found the body of Huang Puma, which was blocked by the beach in a place where the current was calm. Careful people found that the horse's neck had been bitten open, and the horse's blood had been sucked dry.Horses are spiritual, Commander Ga drank horse blood and ascended to heaven.

The National Army did not believe in the stories of Tibetan gods and gods.Thousands of Ma Zhongying's subordinates were drowned, and all of them were frozen and choked to death.Ma Zhongying's remnants fled from Didao to Yang County.Ji Hongchang pursued him closely, and from Didao to Min County for hundreds of miles, all ethnic groups killed each other, and the villages were turned into ruins. Ji Hongchang strictly ordered his subordinates not to attack the Muslims, and even Liu Yufen was exempted from miscellaneous taxes allocated to the counties. go half way.The subordinates persuaded Ji Hongchang, "Let's not worry about this when we are fighting, Commander Liu will be angry." "The common people rebelled because they were forced to do so. You didn't realize that Ma Zhongying's team included Hui Han people. The Han people didn't like to make trouble, so they followed suit. The Hui people were staunch and rebelled whenever they were oppressed. If you want to subdue Ma Zhongying, you must appease the common people." In Xiahe County, Ji Hongchang and Huang Zhengqing met.In Xiahe territory, nothing happened, and Ma Zhongying's army did not commit any crimes here.Ji Hongchang said to his subordinates: "It can be seen that Ma Zhongying is reasonable." Huang Zhengqing said: "I have withdrawn the troops, the county is not fortified, and the Labuleng Temple is here. How can we fight? If Mr. Liu in Lanzhou is like Xuan Mr. Xiafu treats us Tibetans the same way he treats Hui people, so there will be no incidents." Ji Hongchang knew Xuan Xiafu, a general who led the army, and a civil servant who was engaged in political work, and he did not have a deep relationship.Huang Zhengqing thought they were good friends, both of them were from the Northwest Army, and they both cared about the common people.Huang Zhengqing was so outspoken that he even revealed that Xuan Xiafu was the Communist Party.The Northwest Army figured out the party and cleared out the Communist Party long ago. If Chiang Kai-shek was killed, the Northwest Army would send them all away.Ji Hongchang didn't expect Xuan Xiafu to be so popular in Tibetan areas, and he regretted not making this friend.Later, they met again and talked all night long, and Xuan Xiafu became Ji Hongchang's party introducer.Huang Zhengqing has been the red prince in Xiahe County until 1949 when he joined Peng Dehuai's army advancing to the northwest.This is something. In the late autumn of 1928, Ji Hongchang defeated Ma Zhongying in Gannan, returned triumphantly, and entered Lanzhou.What he did in various places has long been heard by Liu Yufen, and many senior generals of the Northwest Army are also dissatisfied with Ji Hongchang's actions.Ji Hongchang didn't realize it.This general is still useful, Liu Yufen advises everyone to bear with it.Not long after, news came that a magic horse took Ma Zhongying's remnants to Qinghai.Liu Yufen asked Ji Hongchang what happened.Ji Hongchang said: "Ma Zhongying is alive again." "Didn't he jump into the river? Even the horse drowned, but if he can live, is the Tao River flowing backwards?" "This man is extraordinary. Commander Liu, hurry up and send an order to Qinghai to get the counties organized to defend against bandits." "This is unprecedented, you are too bold and courageous." "To tell you the truth, Hezhou and Gannan used this method. Why did Ma Zhongying go to Qinghai? He couldn't stand in Gannan, Hezhou." Liu Yufen no longer talked to Ji Hongchang, and gave orders to Sun Lianzhong, An Shude and other veterans of the Northwest Army: "Ma Zhongying is at the end of his battle, we must completely wipe them out in Qinghai." Commander Ga has been washed downstream by the river, and Hezhou could not gain a foothold. He summoned the remnants along the way to drill into Nanshan.The magical big gray horse sensed something when its owner came ashore, and ran all the way from Mengda Gorge in the upper reaches of the Yellow River, and finally found its owner after a day and a night.Thousands of horses gathered in Mengda Canyon. Commander Ga grabbed the horse's ear and stuffed a handful of peas into the horse's mouth, "Oh horse, you have more soldiers than mine. You should be the deputy commander." The big gray horse pawed with excitement.Commander Ga said loudly: "I'm not joking, it has served as the deputy commander twice, and you must follow its command in the future." The army has been running around in the barren mountains and mountains, and everyone is talking about it.Commander Ga’s brother-in-law, Ma Hushan, is used to fighting, fighting like a leopard, and those riders from the green forest set fire to Ma Hushan, “This is not going to work, Commander Ga wants to be a Tang monk, so we will be vegetarians with him for the rest of our lives?” What kind of magic did Huang Zhengqing cast on him? It confuses him." "We have to find a way." Ma Hushan coughed, "I didn't hear what you were talking about." Ma Hushan got on his horse and kicked away. "He won't sue us, will he?" "He is also a greedy person. He doesn't say that his heart is thumping. I heard that his heart is like a horse's hoof in his chest. It's a pity that Xiahe County has so much gold and silver." " Commander Ga will reform us sooner or later, let's reform him first." In the spring of 1929, the army marched to Huangyuan, 3,000 people died, and Huangyuan became a wasteland. When the army marched to Yongdeng, three thousand people died, and Yongdeng became a wasteland. When the army arrived at Minqin, four thousand people died, and Minqin became a wasteland. Commander Ga and his law enforcement team shot dozens of people. The army was as unstoppable as the tide bursting the embankment. They fought recklessly with the National Army and fell down a large piece of it. A gang of bandits, grandpa told you to feed the bullets .Commander Ga's eyes were red.Commander Ga ran into Kumbum Monastery and pleaded guilty to the Great Living Buddha.The Great Living Buddha said that the earth is going to bleed, and no one can do anything about it. I know why you came here. Hate without love is not true Islam. The big gray horse neighed outside the temple, and the saber on the saddle roared dully in the copper sheath. The rider came in to report that Sun Lianzhong's troops of the National Army were coming.Commander Ga saluted the Living Buddha, "The killings are rampant in the holy land of the Buddha. The Living Buddha is not surprised?" The Living Buddha said: "The sea of ​​suffering is boundless, you go swimming." When Commander Ga went out, the riders caught fire with the national army.In that battle, the riders defeated a regiment of the National Army. Sun Lianzhong personally led a large force from Xining to attack, and the riders disappeared in the Badain Jaran Desert. Sun Lianzhong stared at the rising yellow dust in a daze.The chief of staff said: "This kid is like a gust of wind, coming and going indefinitely, spinning his servants." Sun Lianzhong said: "Order the troops to stick to the city and not enter the desert. The bulletin said that Ma Zhongying died three times. Can you believe that he died three times alone?" The chief of staff said: "Ma Bufang told me that as long as Ma Zhongying does not occupy the territory , he will not be able to become a climate, and he will be a rogue for the rest of his life."
