Chapter 1627 This guy is indeed a spy
Baliwan, southwest of Cao County.
Tens of thousands of people who fled from Henan were facing a devastating disaster.
The bandit leader Liu Qihei brought thousands of bandits to block the intersection heading east and south, robbing property, looting women, and forcibly conscripting men, causing the fleeing people to cry loudly.
Liu Qihei stood on the slope, raised his pistol, and roared:
"Fugitives! I, Liu Qihei, am making this clear: if you don't hand over your valuables and beautiful women, and if you young men don't join our group, you will all die today."
An old scholar with white hair and beard, wearing a long robe, stepped forward and bowed, saying:
"My dear Liu! I am Luo Decheng, a Jinshi (imperial scholar) from the Qing Dynasty. We are refugees fleeing from Henan and are starving to death. Please spare our lives."
Liu Qihei released the safety of his pistol and pointed at Luo Decheng, shouting, "Poor bastard! I'm the commander of Luxi Security, appointed by the Imperial Army. Call me Commander Liu."
Luo Decheng hurriedly said, "Hello, Commander Liu! Please let us go."
Liu Qihei sneered, "Luo Decheng! Are you the boss of this group of unruly people?"
An old man stood in front of Luo Decheng and said loudly: "Good man! Mr. Luo is the leader of our group. He can represent us."
"Bang!"
Liu Qihei shot him in the chest and roared:
"Did the commander ask you to speak?"
"you......"
The old man covered his chest, glared, and slowly fell down.
"Third brother!"
Luo Decheng hugged him and cried.
The people pointed at Liu Qihei and shouted angrily:
"You are not a human being, you take human life lightly!"
"You are just a dog of the devil."
Liu Qi was so angry that he shouted:
"Machine gunner! Prepare to fire."
"Yes!"
The three bandits picked up their light machine guns and pulled the bolts.
The people panicked and knelt down to beg for mercy:
"Commander Liu, please spare me! Commander Liu, please spare me!"
Liu Qihei was extremely proud and shouted loudly:
"Escaping! This commander wants money, women, and able-bodied men. The money will be used as military pay, the women will be donated to the Imperial Army, and the young men will join the security forces. All of this will be used for legitimate purposes..."
A bandit ran over and pointed to the northwest and shouted:
"Boss! Countless Eighth Route Army cavalry are coming."
Liu Qihei hurriedly ran to a high place and looked towards the northwest.
Indeed, dust was flying in the northwest, and countless Eighth Route Army cavalry were rushing towards here.
Liu Qihei sneered, "No matter how many Eighth Route Army troops there are, can they surpass this commander's 3 elite troops? Brothers! The Eighth Route Army is poorly armed. Grab your weapons, destroy this group of Eighth Route Army soldiers, and seize their war horses."
"Bang!"
A bullet suddenly came and flew into his forehead.
Liu Qihei opened his eyes wide, pointed his finger at the Eighth Route Army, and fell backwards, dead.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" Three gunshots rang out at the same time.
Three bandits holding machine guns were shot in the forehead at the same time and died with him.
The bandits were stunned by the fact that the bullet could hit their foreheads from such a long distance.
Once the bandit leader died, the remaining bandits were leaderless and shouted in unison, fleeing eastward.
They just bully the common people and have no fighting spirit when they meet the regular army with excellent marksmanship.
The people looked at the Eighth Route Army troops rushing towards them in astonishment. It was not until they saw them that they realized that there were only about 70 people, and many of them were female soldiers. They couldn't help but break out in cold sweats.
If the bandits knew that the Eighth Route Army had only so many people, they would fight to the death.
Half of the Eighth Route Army soldiers chased the bandits, while the other half stayed behind to maintain order.
Xiang Chu rushed up the hill, jumped off his horse, and shouted loudly:
"Fellow villagers! Don't be afraid. We are the Eighth Route Army. The Eighth Route Army is the people's army, the people's army."
Luo Decheng stepped forward and said anxiously, "Commander of the Eighth Route Army! Thank you for your help. Many of us are starving to death. Can you give us some food?"
Xiang Chu nodded and ordered Liu Zhengxiong: "Deputy Commander! Take out all our food and distribute it to the villagers for emergency use."
"Yes!"
Liu Zhengxiong hurriedly took the order and took the team members to distribute food.
Xiang Chu took out two pancakes from his backpack and handed them to Luo Decheng, and asked with a smile:
"Old man! What's your name?"
Luo Decheng took the cake, handed it to the child beside him, and said gratefully, "Thank you, Eighth Route Army commander! I, Luo Decheng, am a Jinshi (Jinshi) from the Qing Dynasty. Henan was hit by natural disasters and man-made disasters, and my hometown was not spared. I had no choice but to take my neighbors from all over the country to Shandong to escape the famine. Many people died of starvation along the way, and were killed by the Japanese invaders. Alas!"
Xiang Chu comforted him, "Mr. Luo! You can call me Commander Lu. Don't worry, we, the Eighth Route Army, will definitely drive out the bandits and settle you down. No one will starve to death."
Luo Decheng shook his head and said, "Commander Lu! You have less than a hundred people, and the bandits just now are said to have tens of thousands. How are you going to deal with them? Besides, how much food can you give us?"
Xiang Chu showed the sniper rifle in his hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry! Our weapons are very advanced. We will go to Tushan now, seize the bandits' lair, steal their food, and distribute it to you."
Luo Decheng nodded and said, "Commander Lu! Our young men will join you in the vanguard, and the rest of us will follow behind. With so many people showing off their power, the bandits will surely be scared away."
Xiang Chu said happily: "Excellent! Let's organize the young and strong people into groups now. As long as we are organized and disciplined, we can survive more effectively."
Luo Decheng praised: "Commander Lu is a man of great talent and strategy. We all listen to you."
At this time, the Eighth Route Army that was chasing the bandits returned.
Xiang Chu gathered everyone around him and gave orders to organize the young and middle-aged civilians into groups.
The instructor team and cadre team immediately took action and organized the young and middle-aged people into groups.
Nearly 3,000 young and middle-aged people were organized into 20 combat teams.
Each team consists of 150 people and is commanded by a shadow spy from the instructor team.
Xiang Chu wanted to lead the troops ahead and told Liu Zhengxiong:
"Deputy Commander! You are leading the team responsible for evacuating the civilians. The task is heavy."
Liu Zhengxiong nodded, still a little worried and said:
"Commander-in-Chief! We are traveling with so many civilians. It will be too easy to be exposed."
Xiang Chu said sternly, "We are the people's army. How can we abandon them? Now that we have people, as long as we seize the bandits' lair and get some food, these tens of thousands of people will be able to live in peace."
Liu Zhengxiong said angrily, "Who said we won't take the civilians with us? I'm just worried about running into the devils. These civilians are unarmed, and if the devils come, they'll be in trouble."
Xiang Chu patted his shoulder and said with a smile, "Don't worry! There are no Japanese troops around. Time is precious. I will lead the combat team to eliminate the bandit's lair, and you lead the cadre team to take care of the people.
That’s right! You let Liu Heping keep an eye on Yin Liao.”
Liu Zhengxiong shouted, "Aren't you in a hurry? Let's go! What kind of trouble can a small Yin Liao cause?"
Xiang Chu scolded: "Don't be careless!"
After saying this, he led the team to run eastward.
Liu Zhengxiong glanced at the ragged refugees and prayed in his heart:
"God, please protect these poor people and make sure they don't run into the devils."
Liu Heping smiled and said, "Deputy Commander! You must be worried about your safety."
Liu Zhengxiong scolded: "How can you not be worried? Quickly organize the people to move eastward."
"Yes!"
Liu Heping hurriedly accepted the order.
Under the organization of the cadre team, the fleeing people slowly moved eastward.
Hu Changsheng ran to Liu Zhengxiong and whispered:
"Deputy Commander! Yin Liao is missing."
Liu Zhengxiong was shocked and said angrily:
"Hateful! This guy is indeed a spy."
