Chapter 421 Buying Life with Money
"Captain! Commander!"
The soldiers of the recruit company gathered around Monk Wei, looking at the blood oozing from his chest, and fired at the Japanese like crazy. Grenades rained down like raindrops from the sky, making the determined bandits a little confused.
"Don't just stand there, go for it!"
But before Shanmaozi could stand up to supervise the battle, he heard the sound of bullets behind him. A group of soldiers from an independent column were rushing towards him like crazy.
The steady Xie Baoqing saw that something was wrong and immediately blew a whistle.
"Come on!"
Shanmaozi looked at the supplies that were about to be obtained, sighed helplessly, and led his large army to rush towards the Black Wind Village.
"Second Commander, send someone to contact Captain Cheng of the 772nd Regiment immediately, the sooner the better! I can see that the soldiers wearing this uniform are not easy to mess with. I'm afraid only Captain Cheng can save us!"
"Yes, I'll send a fast horse!"
Wang Meng was the first to rush up the hillside, pushing aside the tearful recruits and the car soldiers, and shouted:
"Where is Monk Wei! Monk Wei!"
The soldiers remained silent and slowly made way for him. Wang Meng followed the path and saw Monk Wei lying on the ground. He walked towards him tremblingly, as if he had lost his soul.
Looking at Monk Wei's lips which had turned pale due to excessive blood loss, he took a deep breath, squatted down, then put his fingers on Monk Wei's wrist, accepting the arrangement of fate.
"Tick-tick-tick-tick."
A faint beat came from the fingertips. Wang Meng widened his eyes and roared with all his strength:
"Medic, military doctor, hurry up! Stretcher!"
This time when he airdropped into Zhujiayuan, Wang Meng brought the best surgeon from Pingshun Military Hospital over just in case.
Fortunately, he had considered it carefully, and the surgeon immediately cut open Monk Wei's military uniform, cleaned the wound, stopped the bleeding, and bandaged it all in one go.
"Chief of Staff, we can only do simple treatment right now. You need to be sent to a qualified operating room immediately for surgery!"
"Where are Kong Jie's troops? Tell them to step on the accelerator and get to Zhujiayuan as quickly as possible! In addition, Doctor Ke Lihua is equipped with more than a dozen mobile operating rooms! Tell them to drive to Zhujiayuan immediately, speed up both ends, and perform surgery wherever they meet!"
After Wang Meng gave the order, he immediately started a fire on the flat ground and guided Li Yunlong's glider to land.
In less than ten minutes, the airdrop troops had assembled.
Now the 201st Airborne Regiment has assembled two battalions, with more than a thousand soldiers.
When Li Yunlong saw Monk Wei, whose life or death was uncertain, his eyes were filled with heartache. He raised his head to look in the direction of Black Wind Village, and his anger ignited again.
"You damned bandits, you even dare to covet my independent column's things, you must be tired of living! Surround the Black Wind Village!"
The two battalions of the 201st Airborne Regiment immediately surrounded the Black Wind Village and sent out guard posts in all directions to dissuade the Central Army, Shanxi Suiyuan Army and even the Eighth Route Army who wanted to watch the fun from interfering.
The Central Army and Jin Shiji were confused and thought that Wang Meng was going to attack them, which made Chongqing and Yan Xishan very nervous.
One was afraid that his little trick would be exposed, and the other was afraid that Li Yunlong would retaliate against him. They both advised Li Yunlong to remain restrained and not act impulsively.
"Oh, I told them we were here to fight bandits, why didn't they believe me?"
"Old Li, what kind of bandits need more than a thousand regular soldiers to fight? Although this place is the junction of the Central Army, the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army and the Eighth Route Army, and it is a no-man's land, there shouldn't be so many bandits, right? Even if you tell me, I won't believe it!"
"If you don't believe me, just beg me! Anyway, tell them to stop interfering! As soon as the sun rises tomorrow, we will take care of Black Wind Village!"
Early the next morning, Monk Wei was already in a mobile operating room near Yuncheng, undergoing surgery by Dr. Ke Lihua.
Li Yunlong was also at the gate of Heifengzhai, shouting something inside.
"Brothers from the Black Wind Village, I am sent by the blind leader of the 772nd Regiment to reorganize you. Come out quickly and accept the reorganization!"
Xie Baoqing looked at the row of 81mm mortars from the village gate. He was so frightened that his calves cramped and he could only squat on the ground with difficulty.
"Second Commander, there are only a hundred brothers left in our village. If they attack us, we will be finished! When will Captain Cheng arrive?"
The second in command, Shanmaozi, touched his beard.
"Hiss, I calculated the distance, we should be almost there! Wait a little longer!"
Li Yunlong looked at the quiet village and shouted impatiently.
"Xie Baoqing! Hurry up and open the door and accept the transformation, otherwise it will be a rebellion and I can destroy you on the spot!"
Xie Baoqing had no choice but to show half of his head.
"Sir, please don't joke with me. I didn't see anything else but the black muzzle of the gun. Why don't we wait for Captain Cheng to come and then open the gate. I will apologize to you then!"
"Damn it! If you don't accept my toast, I'll punish you! Fire!"
After ten mortars fired a round at the same time, the bandits were finally "persuaded" to open the village gate, raise their hands in unison, and walk out of the Black Wind Village obediently.
The disarmed bandits squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands, looking like little chicks.
Li Yunlong looked around and couldn't find Xie Baoqing after searching for a long time.
"Mengzi, this old bastard won't run away, will he?"
"Humph, you want to escape? No way! There will be a surprise soon!"
Li Yunlong grabbed a bandit and kicked him twice.
"Let me ask you, who told you to attack the convoy of the independent column? And who told you to throw grenades?"
"Sir, it's the Second in Command!"
"point out!"
The bandit pointed at the mountain cat squatting on the ground with trembling hands. He still had a defiant look on his face.
"You're the second in command? Stand up for me!"
Shanmaozi looked left and right, and seeing that everyone was avoiding his eyes, he could only stand up slowly.
"Sir, I didn't know it was the convoy of the Independent Column at that time. If I knew, I wouldn't dare to do it even if I had a hundred guts! We have now joined the Eighth Route Army, so we are considered friendly forces. Why don't you just let us go? It's better to give face to the Buddha!"
"Stop talking nonsense. You didn't rob the independent column's property, but you robbed the common people's property? You really are bullying the weak and afraid of the strong. Are you still a real man? Also, with your character, even if you are recruited by Cheng Xiazi, you are still a black sheep. It's better for me to clean up the mess for him, so as not to bring shame to the Eighth Route Army!"
When Shanmaozi heard this, he thought, there's nothing to talk about. He fell to his knees with a plop. The rebelliousness just now was gone, and now he was left with only a strong desire to survive.
"Sir, please spare my life. Sir, please spare my life. I have money. I can buy my life with money!"
"Oh? Really? Let's go check it out then?"
