Glorious Mission 1937

Banditry is a very special profession, and gangsters are a special group of such special practitioners.In people's minds, bandits are often associated with robbers and bullies. If there is an army, the common people will associate them with the vulnerable mob.From the government's point of view, bandits live by robbery and extortion, lack political foresight, and are destroyers of law and order.

The northern part of China has always been the hardest-hit area for banditry. Especially since the Republic of China, the national government and local warlords have attacked each other for power and interests. The people's life is extremely difficult and the social order is in chaos. Big and small bandits.

These bandits vary in size, and some of them have one or two leaders pull up the pole in the local area, gather dozens of people, form sworn gangs, and carry out robbery activities in a relatively small area.The names of small groups of bandits vary from place to place. They are called "Jianzi" in Northeast China, "Gang" in North China, and Tang or Gu in South China.

In addition to these small groups of bandits, there is also a large group of bandits that is a headache for the government. This kind of bandit is usually composed of several or dozens of small groups of bandits. Also known as the head of the pole, also known as the master and the shopkeeper.The big leader has the right to issue orders internally, and has the right to contact everything on behalf of his subordinates externally.A large group of bandits may have hundreds of people at least, thousands or even tens of thousands of people at most.Carry out plundering activities in a wide geographical range.

For example, the Bailang Uprising in 1912 was a big uprising led by bandits. When it entered China, at its strongest, Bailang united with 34 bandits with hundreds of people each, totaling more than 5 people.Bai Lang was the leader of the pole, followed by 34 players including Bai Xiazi, Song Laozi, Zhang Qiyun, Zhang Jiande, and Li Hong.For example, the Sun Meiyao Group in Baodugu, Zaozhuang, Shandong, is also a bandit group. [

Man is a social animal, and any organization in human society must follow certain rules if it wants to exist and carry out activities for a long time.Subject to certain constraints.Absolute freedom and absolute restraint are impossible.Bandits are people, so bandit organizations are the most dissolute, loosest, and least willing to be restrained among the various organizations in human society.However, this refers to the days when they are not bound by the laws, morals, and other public rules of normal society, and generally live with beautiful people.Most bandit teams are internally restrained.The discipline of some bandit teams is quite strict.

Wang Huhu's bandit gang is the largest in Hebei.In such a huge gang, rules are a must.At the beginning of its establishment, the bandit gang formulated the "Four Covenants", "Eight Reward Rules", "Eight Cuts" and "Ten Do Not Rob".The "Four Covenants" are: strictly keep secrets; observe discipline; share weal and woe; and rest with the mountains.

The "Eight Reward Rules" and "Eight Cuts" are the principles of their rewards and punishments, that is, those who are loyal to mountain affairs will be rewarded; those who resist the enemy's officers and soldiers will be rewarded; Those who are brave will be rewarded; those who strive to be the first will be rewarded; those who work together will be rewarded.Those who reveal secrets will be executed; those who disobey orders will be executed; those who run away from the battle will be executed;

"Ten not to rob" is the principle of bandits going out to rob.That is, do not rob the car for weddings and funerals; do not rob the postman; do not rob the ferryman; do not rob those who practice medicine with backpacks; rob; widows and lonely do not rob; single night travelers do not rob.

It is precisely because of such rules that Wang Huo's gang has developed into the largest gang in Hebei in just a dozen years. Even the National Government can't do anything about them, and there are many capable people among these bandits , some are bandits for generations, some are former officers and soldiers, and some are young masters from a scholarly family, there are all kinds of people.

However, these people can be bandits, but not all of them are willing to be traitors, and Qin Yiwu is one of them.

Qin Yiwu is from Shimen, and was originally a company commander of the Handan garrison brigade. Because Shangguan fell in love with Qin Yiwu's wife, he framed him for colluding with bandits, so he was arrested and forced to submit his wife, or he would be executed. .

Fortunately, Qin Yiwu has a group of good brothers. Seeing Qin Yiwu's suffering, they all went to rob the prison together.However, when they rushed to Qin Yiwu's house to pick up Qin Yiwu's wife and mother, they found that Qin Yiwu's house was in a mess, and Qin Yiwu's mother was lying in a pool of blood, dying of breath.Although Qin Yiwu's wife was not dead, she was about to die, and the scissors stuck in her chest were already stained red with blood.

It turned out that the commander of the Handan Police Brigade, where Qin Yiwu was, was going to take Qin Yiwu's wife forcibly, but was forced to die by Qin Yiwu's old mother and his wife.

After a catastrophic change, Qin Yiwu led seventy or eighty brothers to attack the brigade headquarters at night, killing all 14 officers including the commander of the garrison brigade in the barracks, and then burned the barracks to the ground.Therefore, Qin Yiwu became a key criminal wanted by the national government, but in desperation he had no choice but to become a bandit and fell into Wang Huo's lock.

By 37, Qin Yiwu had already climbed to the third position in the gang, second only to Big Tiger Wang and Hu Han, the second leader. At the same time, Qin Yiwu was also the chief strategist of the gang, formulating action plans and strategies, and had great power.

When the Japanese came in, Qin Yiwu actually had the idea of ​​fighting the devils. As a former soldier, he still had the ideal of defending his family and the country, and being a bandit all his life was not a way out. Bandits turned into regular soldiers to wash away their sins That's the best thing.

But it's a pity that this idea was destroyed by the big master before it was implemented. Wang Huo wanted to take them as traitors. Although Qin Yiwu was very reluctant in his heart, he had no choice. He joined the puppet army, became a traitor, and was appointed as the chief of staff of the No.13 Group.After the expansion of the troops, he was appointed as the deputy commander of the Seventh Division of the North China Security Army.

In the past two years, under Qin Yiwu's planning.The Pseudo Seventh Division has passed by the troops of both the Kuomintang and the Communist Party many times, and only participated in a few small-scale security battles, and its record was mediocre.

This time the Japanese army arrested Chinese civilians to serve as eye-catching bunkers, many of whom were relatives of soldiers of the Seventh Division of the Puppet Army. This behavior in itself made the officers and soldiers of the Puppet Army extremely angry. At that time, a large part of the puppet army did not work hard, which made the Japanese army very dissatisfied.

So after the battle, the Japanese army executed two battalion commanders and one deputy regiment commander on charges of ineffective combat, which aroused great anger from the puppet army.The lips are dead and the teeth are cold.Several officers from the [-]th Infantry Division of the Puppet North China Security Army approached Qin Yiwu, and the two hit it off and decided to stage an uprising tonight to rescue the common people in the city.Then go to Chen Feng.

But because the east gate is the main position, read the full text for the dead soul.Where did the Japanese army hoard a large number of troops.If you escape from where, the casualties are bound to be extremely heavy, and it may not be successful.And Ximen has not found the Chinese army yet, so the Japanese army only deployed an infantry squadron there.Therefore, Qin Yiwu and others decided to break out from the west gate.

After the gunshots rang out in the city, Yang Yi and the others were caught off guard by the sudden situation, and they didn't hear any wind at all beforehand. Could it be that this was a conspiracy by the little devil?

But as the gunshots in the city became more and more urgent, and even heard the gunfire, Yang Yi knew that there must be something wrong with the Japanese and puppet troops in the city. It must be a regular unit of the Japanese army.The gunshots from the other side were chaotic, and there were guns in disorder. It was not a regular army at first glance. The people in the city equipped with this kind of Wanguo brand weapons must be the puppet army. [

Good opportunity, if this is the case, it would be an excellent opportunity to wipe out the defenders of Zhengding. Yang Yi made a decisive decision. While reporting the situation to Chen Feng, he ordered the troops to attack the Japanese army at the east gate, and at the same time sent a small The troops went around to the west gate to check the situation.

The Qin Yiwu battlefield uprising caused the Japanese army to be extremely panicked. Although the three thousand puppet troops are nothing, a brigade at most can easily wipe them out in normal times, but it is different now. There are tens of thousands of elite troops outside. Not only could they not destroy those puppet troops, but they would even throw in their two infantry regiments.So the Japanese army, while guarding against the surprise attack by Yang Yi's troops, dispatched two infantry brigades to encircle and suppress Qin Yiwu's troops.

The uprising troops were not many, only two infantry regiments, one cavalry battalion and one guard battalion, with a total strength of only more than 1 people.The insurgent troops first captured the Hu family compound where the Chinese people were imprisoned, and then captured the West Gate, where the Japanese troops were relatively empty, and then blocked the Japanese attack while covering the retreat of the people.

Their weapons and equipment were already very poor, plus they had to live under the influence of the Japanese army for a long time, and they had to cover the escape of five or six thousand ordinary people, so the casualties of the troops were very heavy.

Within 10 minutes of the battle, the 600 insurgents lost [-] casualties. If this continues for an hour at most, the entire army will be wiped out.But the matter has come to this point, and it is too late to regret, and some of the common people they cover have their relatives, so there is no regret. All the rebels know that if the uprising fails, not only will they die, but even the common people will not have a place to die. Good end, after working behind the little devil's ass for so long, how can they not know what kind of virtue those sons of bitches are.

All the insurgents were determined to die. They only hoped that they could hold on for a while longer and buy a little more time for the fleeing common people.

Four or 10 minutes into the battle, Qin Yiwu was injured, and more than half of the officers and soldiers in his unit were killed or injured. One of the two infantry regiment commanders was killed and the other injured. Only 16 of the 9 battalion commanders and deputy battalion commanders remained. The most important thing was that they were bitten by the Japanese army. A Japanese detachment suddenly passed through the houses on the east side and occupied the west gate. Qin Yiwu and others were trapped on the street leading to the west gate by two Japanese troops, and they couldn't get rid of it in a short time.The only fortunate thing is that most of the people who were forcibly captured by the Japanese army escaped, and only less than 300 people were surrounded by the Japanese army at the gate of the city together with the rebel army.

"Brothers, we have been bandits for most of our lives and traitors for two years. We have never done a single thing in this life, but today we did a good job in this job! Even if we die, we can We are going to meet our parents dignifiedly, today we cannot withdraw, and the little devils will not accept our surrender, the only thing we can do is to fight these bastards!" Qin Yiwu shouted, dragging his injured arm.

"Fight with the little devil!"

"He lost a big scar on his head, and after 18 years he will be a hero again. Fight hard!"

"Fight!"

"Da da da!"

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"

Suddenly, there was a burst of fierce gunfire outside the west gate, hitting the Japanese soldiers on the city wall crying for their fathers and mothers!

When everyone was astonished, Qin Yiwu suddenly said loudly: "Brothers, we are saved! Reinforcement! It is our reinforcement!"
