Chapter 6: Zhang Wang Waiting (3)

Call loudly: Please pay attention! Please click! Please collect! Please recommend!

...

Liu Heiqi, who was preparing to lead his troops to take action in Xintai and Laiwu, heard the news and sent someone out to investigate. Soon, he got the news he needed.

"A train of rice and other supplies should have millions of kilograms, right? The coal mine and cement factory have a guard team of well-equipped more than 400 people? That's more than 400 good guns..." Liu Heiqi began to think about it in his mind.

"Big boss, I heard that Yin Laihao and Wang from Linqu also wanted to do this business, and they also said that the two families had eaten this batch of grain." The bandits who were exploring the news seemed to be very informative.

"Hello Yin Lai? The four big men of Wang? Humph! They have less than 2,000 people, and half of them are holding big swords and spears. They dare to say this? Is there really no tiger monkey in the mountains called the king?" Liu Heiqi smiled coldly and said, "Then Master Liu, I might as well give their subordinates to the next time. In this way, in addition to getting a large amount of food, the guards and Yin Lai, the weapons of the four big men of Wang, I can at least add more than 1,500 guns and merge more than 1,000 troops. Then the Yimeng land belongs to Master Liu, and I am strong."

"It's not stopping." The bandit who was exploring the news added with a smile on his face: "I heard that besides Yin Laihao and Wang's four men, there are many other people from other hills to get a share. The more than 700 remaining troops of Zhao Ma at the junction of Yishui and Mengyin were also ready to take action, and there are many other small groups of people. If the Liu Group can merge them all over, the Liu Group can also add more than 2,000 more people. Not only does the Yimeng land depend on your expression, but the entire Shandong may be the Liu Group except the Jiang Damao Zhang in Jinan. At that time, the Liu Group will be strong and strong. If the Jiang Damao Zhang is appointed as the commander, it will be better to be a division commander?"

Liu Heiqi was overjoyed when he heard this and couldn't help but laugh.

After laughing, Liu Heiqi asked again: "Do you know when Yin Lai and the others are going to take action?"

"I heard that they were planning to take action on August 14th, and they also advocated that they would go back to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival after grabbing food. Liu Tuan, why not set it on that day, and it would not be too late to wait for those guys to take action first and then we will take action, so they will be all in one go."

"No! We will hide and wait in advance to be the last yellow bird. When they fight, we will appear again, wait for the work and clean up the mess. At that time, any group of people who are not convinced will be destroyed! Well, that's it!" Liu Heiqi's little abacus was crackling and making a sound.

...

The years have been wars and natural disasters and man-made disasters, and some small and medium-sized landlords will also go bankrupt. It is not empty talk to the landlords' homes, so it is becoming increasingly difficult for bandits to grab food. Suddenly, there is a place in the north that has a huge amount of food that can be eaten and used for several years, so the bandits are not unhappy. Moreover, there are well-informed bandit legends that the news of the ten train grain has been confirmed by Yin Laihao from Linqu, and the four kings of Wang are confirmed to be true. However, Yin Laihao and others have few people, and it is difficult for them to completely eat so much food for a while, so they spread out news to inform the leaders of the other hills in the Yimeng area to carry out "righteous acts", and the action time is also determined on August 14th, so that everyone can go back to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival after snatching the grain.

Yin Laihao, Wang Four, had no idea that the time of action determined by them was heard by "solicited people" and then spread it out, and various targeted and different versions were formed for different sizes of stock gangsters.

Inspired by this legendary news, the bandits in the Yimeng Mountains did not receive the news in time due to distance reasons, except for the bandits south of Mengshan, the bandits in the entire Yishui area, the northern Mengyin, the eastern Laiwu, the eastern Xintai, and the southern Linqu took action one after another. However, most of the bandits were earlier than the agreed action time. According to some smart bandits, it would be better to go there early than to wait a little longer than to go late. Some bandits even wanted to grab some food in advance before talking about it. Unfortunately, from getting confirmed news and then rushing to Shiqiao, most bandits could arrive two days before the Mid-Autumn Festival.

A large number of bandits began to gather from all over the southeast, northwest and north to the near the Yishui source. Wherever they passed, they were like locusts passing through the border, and many people along the way were affected. Many poor people who had difficulty living by relying on wild vegetables, tree bark, and grass roots were killed because they could not get the food and other supplies they wanted. Those families with wealthy families and had some surplus food in their hands became penniless after the bandits passed.

After hearing that bandits gathered at the source of Yishui and led to the tragic encounters of the people along the way, many towns and villages that had not yet arrived were very nervous, and many people hid in the deep mountains. The landlords and gentry fled with their families and left the chaotic home where bandits were armed in large groups. Those who were really hard to leave their hometowns fled to Yishui, Linqu, Mengyin, Xintai, Laiwu and other counties to hide for a while. A little farther away, some fled to Qingdao and Jinan; even further away, some crossed the sea to the northeast or to Shanghai and other places. As for these landlords who fled, when will the gentry return to their homes, they should learn more about the news and see when the area will stabilize.

On the afternoon of September 28, in the office of Shiqiao Cement Factory, Zhao Zhenzhong, Jiang Yishan, Liu Jifeng, Du Yishan, Zhang Mingrui, Zhang Gongyuan, Ding Yicheng, Han Tiezhu, Wang Tieshan and others sat together. Among these people, Zhang Gongyuan and Wang Tieshan led two companies dressed as workers to follow the grain transport train, while Jiang Yishan came here secretly to attend the joint combat meeting.

"From the news we have obtained now, the implementation of the "faning the flames" plan was very successful, and it has basically lured the bandits near the source of Zhongyishui in the Yimeng Mountains. However, the number of bandits involved in the robbery of Shiqiao Cement Plant this time was more than we had expected, reaching more than 10,300 people. Among them, Yin Laihao and Wang Sida and Wang Sida were dispatched for more than 1,700 people; Liu Heiqi's troops dispatched for more than 3,200 people; Zhao Mama's remnant troops dispatched for more than 800 people; other large and small bandits also dispatched for more than 4,600 people."

After talking about the number of bandits discovered, Zhao Zhenzhong joked with interest: "It seems that these bandits really want to gather people to transport the legendary Ten train food, which is basically all over the place." After hearing this, the other participants couldn't help laughing.

"Next, we will implement the original 'spider web' plan. This time we will focus on the large bandits such as Yin Laihao, Wang Sida, Liu Heiqi, Zhao Ma's remnants, and must annihilate them. As for other bandits of all sizes, it is still difficult for us to solve them together with our current personnel, so we can temporarily put aside our own avenues and solve them in the follow-up action plan."

"Since everyone has understood the relevant action plan now, I will clarify the tasks of each department in this battle."

"Jiang Yishan, after you three of you outside companies discovered that Liu Heiqi and the remnants of Zhao's mother did go north in large numbers, they cleaned up the left-behind personnel of the two bandits' nests on the evening of September 29, that is, the 12th night of the eighth lunar month. They asked not to make too much noise, so as not to disturb people outside the bandits' nests. Then, each company was divided into two groups, a total of six groups, carrying light and heavy weapons, and set up positions at the designated location to intercept the defeated Liu Heiqi's troops, and be sure to annihilate them all! As for other bandits passing through you, don't let them go!"

"Yes! Ensure the completion of the task!" Jiang Yishan stood up and replied loudly.

"Liu Jifeng and Du Yishan, you lead the remaining personnel of each company to carry pre-prepared light and heavy weapons and lurk near the designated location. After confirming that Yin Laihao, Wang Sidazi and other bandits left their nests, they will clear the bandits in the nests of the two bandits on the evening of September 30. Then each company is divided into two groups, a total of four groups, and set up positions to the designated location to intercept the defeated bandits, Wang Sidazi and Zhao Mama's remaining bandits. Be sure not to let them escape."

"Yes! Ensure the completion of the task!" Liu Jifeng and Du Yishan replied in unison.

"Zhang Mingrui led the remaining 50 rangers to hide in the cement plant and surrounding mountains with light and heavy weapons, and control the commanding heights. While guarding against bandits to attack from behind, he used long-range sniper methods to snipe the bandit leaders and backbones who besieged the cement plant, creating chaos, so as to paralyze their command in front of the battle, disrupt their offensive rhythm, and disintegrate their offensive."

"Yes! Ensure the completion of the task!" Zhang Mingrui also replied loudly.

"Han Tiezhu, you lead the company into the preset frontier position near the factory area and prepare to fight the bandits' attack. Ding Yicheng, you lead the company into the second line of defense, ready to respond to Han Tiezhu at any time and face the bandits' attack. All actions of your two companies follow my orders and are not allowed to act without authorization."

"Yes! Ensure the completion of the task!" Han Tiezhu and Ding Yicheng also answered loudly.

"Zhang Gongyuan, Wang Tieshan, as the reserves for this defensive operation, you two companies are ready to fight at any time. When Han Tiezhu and Ding Yicheng fight, you can watch the battle forward, but you can only watch and do not interfere with combat command."

"Yes!" Zhang Gongyuan and Wang Tieshan were a little unwilling to accept it when they heard that their company had become a reserve team, and there was a little confidence in their voices.

"Okay, the mission has been clear. Jiang Yishan, Liu Jifeng, Du Yishan, Zhang Mingrui, you guys will lead the team members to perform their tasks. Remember to take their own actions, be careful to use your brain more, don't fight hard, pay more attention to safety!"

"Sir, don't worry, we will definitely pay attention. But can you give us some special supplies?" After Jiang Yishan arrived here, he had an idea after seeing the defensive position set up by Zhao Zhenzhong, and now he took the opportunity to bring it up.

"I want some supplies that are arranged on the other side of the gravel slope as my husband has. If we intercept at the scheduled location, the arrangement like my husband will definitely be of great use and can reduce unnecessary casualties." Jiang Yishan explained.

"Okay, come with me to the factory warehouse to check it out. I guess after the arrangement outside, the remaining supplies will be barely enough for you to use."

"If you have enough, just do it." Jiang Yishan was very happy. When Liu Jifeng and Du Yishan heard such a good thing, they were naturally unwilling to fall behind and followed. Then, several people searched in the warehouse and brought all the supplies they needed. The more than 50 people brought by the guard Jiang Yishan to stuff their backpacks. It seemed that the weight was at least 35 kilograms. Liu Jifeng and Du Yishan were in the company nearby, which was not as exaggerated as Jiang Yishan and the others. However, each of them also carried sufficient ammunition.

Han Tiezhu, Ding Yicheng, Zhang Gongyuan and Wang Tieshan led the squad and platoon-level personnel of their respective companies to begin to familiarize themselves with the various arrangements on the positions and the surrounding terrain, and prepare for the upcoming battle in advance.
