Siheyuan: Hang Jia Dongxu, smash Banggeng to death!

Southwest China.

It is characterized by towering mountains and steep ridges.

The bandits had been entrenched for many years and wielded considerable power.

They colluded with local landlords and tyrants to oppress the people, committing all sorts of evil deeds, and even secretly colluded with some warlords.

Independent Regiment Commander Ma Yongzhen was ordered to suppress the enemy. He led two thousand soldiers, traversing mountains and valleys, on a difficult journey.

"Commander, the bandits here are colluding with the Central Army. If we fight them, will the Central Army intervene?" the chief of staff asked in a low voice.

Ma Yongzhen remained silent for a moment. "No matter who interferes, the bandits must be wiped out. If those warlords dare to obstruct us, they are colluding with the bandits, and we will punish them as well."

"yes!"

The troops searched the mountains for several days before finally reaching the vicinity of the bandits' lair.

The bandits used the mountain caves as cover to build sturdy fortifications.

"Commander, a direct assault would result in too many casualties. Could we try to lure them out?" a company commander suggested.

Ma Yongzhen thought for a moment, "Send someone to deliver a challenge, inviting them to a decisive battle. Only in this way can the people be saved."

Will they come out?

"If they don't come out, cut off their supply lines and starve them to death."

The challenge was delivered, and the bandit leader laughed heartily.

"A mere brat dares to come here to die? Tell him I'm waiting for him on the mountain. If he's got the guts, he can come up here."

Ma Yongzhen sneered, "Since they won't come out, then let's attack. Notify the artillery to bombard them."

The chief of staff asked, "Won't this accidentally harm civilians?"

Ma Yongzhen changed his tone and said coldly, "Are there ordinary people in bandit dens? They are the families of bandits, and they are all small bandits who have benefited from the system."

"As long as they're bandits, they'll be bandits for life. Blow them up!"

"Yes, Commander."

The chief of staff, being sensible, followed the arrangements. Ma Yongzhen was right; those who benefit from the system are not innocent.

"fire!!!"

boom!!!!

More than a dozen mountain guns began to bombard the area, and shells landed around the cave, sending rocks flying everywhere.

The bandits relied on fortifications and fought desperately.

The soldiers charged forward bravely, but the bandits, taking advantage of the terrain, were unable to break through for a time, mainly because their weapons were no worse than those of the Central Army.

It was clear that a warlord was secretly providing support.

"Damn it, the firepower is too intense!" a company commander cursed.

Ma Yongzhen gritted his teeth, "Give me the explosives, I'll do it myself!"

"Commander, you can't go!"

"Get out of the way!"

Ma Yongzhen picked up the explosive charge and rushed into the cave amidst a hail of bullets.

The soldiers followed behind him, charging forward with their assault rifles in hand.

boom!

The explosive charge detonated, blasting a large hole in the cave.

The soldiers rushed in and opened fire with their assault rifles.

The outcome is decided.

The battle lasted for a day and a night.

The bandits were all wiped out, and their leader was captured alive.

"You...you are devils!" The bandit leader trembled all over.

Ma Yongzhen sneered, "Devil? You are the real devils when you oppress the people."

"But we are the people's soldiers, here for the people. Take him away and bring him down the mountain for a public trial."

The bandit leader was taken down the mountain, tried in public, and executed.

The people spread the news with great joy. This day had been long awaited, but they were happy, as it marked a new beginning.

……

Kawanishi

The bandits were a powerful force.

They colluded with local lamas and chieftains to oppress the people and commit all sorts of evil deeds.

Zhou Xingxing, the battalion commander of the fourth battalion of the Independent Regiment, and Da Jun, the battalion commander of the fifth battalion, were ordered to suppress the enemy. They led two thousand soldiers, traversing mountains and valleys, on a difficult journey.

"Xingzai, the bandits here are colluding with the Central Army. If we fight them, will the Central Army get involved?" Dajun asked in a low voice.

Stephen Chow was silent for a moment, then said, "No matter who interferes, the bandits must be wiped out. If the Central Army dares to stop us, we'll fight them too."

I agree.

The troops searched the mountains for several days before finally finding the bandits' lair.

"Xingzai, a direct assault will definitely result in heavy casualties. Can we find a way to lure them out?" Dajun suggested.

Stephen Chow thought for a moment, "Should we do what Brother Ma did and send someone to issue a challenge, inviting them to a duel to the death?"

"inappropriate."

Zhou Xingxing asked doubtfully, "Then what do you think of Dajun?"

Da Jun decisively said, "I think we should just overwhelm them with firepower and crush them. In the face of absolute strength, any obstacle is useless."

How could a mere few thousand bandits compare to the hundreds of thousands of soldiers under my command?

Zhou Xingxing thought about it and realized that when the Chinese Independent Brigade marched north, it only had a little over 10,000 men, while the hundreds of thousands of Kwantung Army and puppet troops were running away in panic.

"Alright, since they won't come out and fight to the death, let's attack. Notify the artillery to bombard them."

More than a dozen mountain guns began to bombard the bunker, and shells landed around it, sending rocks flying everywhere.

Taking advantage of the terrain, the bandits put up a desperate resistance.

A bandit leader said fearfully, "Damn it, boss, what do we do? The enemy's firepower is too strong."

The leader gritted his teeth and said, "Use explosives. We have to blow up their cannons, or we'll be meat in the pot."

"Old Mo, I want to eat fish."

"it is good."

Old Mo's bandits took a bomb, flipped over, and circled around to Zhou Xingxing's artillery position.

However, after traveling less than two miles, the army used their special abilities to detect that enemies were stealthily approaching.

"Someone's coming, heading for the artillery position."

Stephen Chow said, "Just kill them."

"it is good."

Da Jun's lips curled into a smile, and he waved to the artillerymen, signaling them to fire in one direction.

Old Mo bypassed the soldiers of the Chinese Independent Brigade and smugly mocked, "Is that all? You call that a great defeat for a little monkey?"

It's just that I didn't come out of seclusion; otherwise, I could have taken on Commander Lin's position too.

Eh?

What is that?

Old Mo was sneaking away when he saw something fall from the sky. The artillery position was only three miles away from him.

"not good?"

boom!!!

By the time the old Mexican realized something was wrong, it was too late; seven or eight mortar shells were falling on him.

Old Mo could only escape using Blood Escape.

"waste!"

The leader, who had been watching closely, cursed and shouted, "Hold on! Hold on, everyone!"

The battle lasted for a day and a night.

The bandits were all wiped out, and those who were to be arrested were captured alive.

"You devils! Don't you know how to treat prisoners of war well?" The leader was bound hand and foot, trembling all over.

Stephen Chow sneered, "Devils? You are the real devils on earth, we are just the judges of hell."

Our goal is to send you to hell for judgment.

The bandit leader was taken down the mountain, tried in public, and executed.

Meanwhile, anti-banditry activities were launched everywhere.

Bandits were being suppressed throughout the country.

Dabie Mountains, Jinggang Mountains, Taihang Mountains, Yimeng Mountains, Wuyi Mountains... bandit strongholds were wiped out one after another.

Of course, this also touched the interests of certain people, and warlords of all sizes in various places couldn't sit still.

"Damn the Chinese Independent Brigade! How dare they send troops into our territory to suppress bandits without permission? I'm going to complain to the Chairman..."
