Chapter 27 Struggle
"This wine is probably not delicious."
At the same time, Niu Sigen was also hesitating at his home in Longkou County.
At this time, there were several trusted subordinates gathered at Niu Sigen's house. One of the puppet military battalion commanders said: "The old saying goes, there is no good banquet, no good meeting. These two guys don't know where they came out, and they don't know what they thought. Yu Qian, report to the military police and ask Xiaosi to arrest these two guys."
"Fuck, are you talking about human words?" Another puppet military battalion commander immediately retorted, "If you really want to report to the little Japanese and ask the little Japanese to arrest them and kill them, then will we really become dog traitors who are accomplices of tigers?
The puppet army battalion commander who spoke at first sneered: "I don't even look at what you are wearing now?"
Another puppet army battalion commander was anxious and said in a hurry: "I'm wearing this dog's skin, and I'm still a Chinese."
Seeing that the two of them started arguing again, Niu Sigen became angry, and suddenly slapped the table and shouted, "Get out, get out of here."
Several battalion commanders slipped away in shame, Niu Sigen sat back on the chair in dejectedly, staring at the Guan Gong statue posted on the wall and became stunned.
(Split Line)
Gao Shenxing and Li Mu waited in Zuixianlou until 8 o'clock in the evening, but still no Niu Sigen came to the banquet.
Gao Shenxing was still in the mood to sit there and eat melon seeds, but Li Mu was so anxious that he was almost ants on the hot pan.
After walking around the table for a few times, Li Mu walked over and pushed open the carved wooden window and looked down on the street. He saw that there were no Japanese or puppet troops on the street, so he breathed a little relieved. He put down the window and walked back and started to circle around the table.
Gao Shenxing was so angry that he had a little throat when he picked up the tea cup and sipped the tea, and said to Li Mu: "I said you can't sit down? You don't feel dizzy when you go around, I'm so dizzy."
Li Mu ignored Gao Shenxing and said, "Old Gao, let's go."
As he said that, Li Mu took out a pocket watch from his arms and handed it to Gao Shenxing and said, "Look, it's eight o'clock now, Niu Sigen hasn't come. I think he won't come. It's useless for us to wait any longer. Let's leave quickly." Li Mu was not afraid of death, but was afraid of dying here worthlessly. If Niu Sigen reports them to the Japanese, they will really explain it to them today.
"No hurry, isn't it just eight o'clock?" Gao Shenxing still had a leisurely expression. After drinking tea, he started to eat melon seeds again. While eating, he said to Li Mu, "The old saying goes, there is no good banquet, and there is no good meeting. Our banquet is not delicious. We have to let Niu Sigen be some time to let him figure it out, right?"
Li Mu said anxiously: "When he figured it out, it's time for the little Japanese to come."
Before he finished speaking, neat footsteps suddenly sounded on the street outside. Li Mu's face changed drastically. After catching the window in two steps, he pushed the window open and looked up the street along the slightly open gap. He saw a team of puppet troops carrying live ammunition driving along the street to outside the Zuixian Tower, blocking the entrance directly.
"It's over, this bastard really brought people to catch us." Li Mu put down the window and was about to pull out his gun with his backhand.
"Don't move." Gao Shenxing had arrived behind Li Mu for some time, but he held Li Mu's hand down and said in a deep voice, "It's just a puppet army, no little Japan, things might turn around."
After saying that, Gao Shenxing sat back to the table, took out the box cannon from his waist, then took a chopstick from the chopstick drum and folded it into two pieces, flipped the table and inserted it into the bottom plate of the table with the tips of the two chopsticks to form a certain angle, and then stuck the box cannon in. After tinkering, Gao Shenxing knocked the table back and continued to crack melon seeds.
So even with the chaotic footsteps, he rushed up along the stairs.
After a moment, the door of the box was kicked open. More than a dozen puppet soldiers were holding the official position. Hanyang Zao even had old sleeves rushing in. The black muzzles were aimed at Gao Shenxing and Li Mu. Gao Shenxing was still sitting there eating melon seeds. Li Mu did not move. A puppet army officer came in and searched the box cannon hidden on Li Mu.
Niu Sigen followed into the box and saw Gao Shenxing sitting on a chair and eating melon seeds, his pupils shrank. He couldn't help but admire the guy in front of him. No matter what kind of way this guy is, whether it is the Kuomintang or the Communist army, just this courage that is not lustful before the collapse of Mount Tai but is a person worth making friends.
A puppet army stepped forward and pulled open the chair. Niu Sigen sat down with his butt, stared at Gao Shenxing's eyes and asked, "Are you really not afraid that I will go and report to the little Japanese?"
"I'm afraid." Gao Shenxing clapped his hands and smiled at Niu Sigen, "But I believe in my eyes more. I believe that Niu Sigen is also a character and will never report to the Japanese."
"That may not be." Niu Sigen said, "Have you seen me bring so many people?"
Gao Shenxing smiled and shook his head and said, "Captain Niu, we don't need to say these foolish people. If you really want to take us, it is not your brother, but the little Japanese of the military police."
Niu Sigen's eyes suddenly turned ruthless, staring at Gao Shenxing without saying a word.
Gao Shenxing didn't care at all, but just smiled and looked back at the past.
The puppet army officer standing behind Niu Sigen suddenly raised the mirror box, opened the nose and pointed the gun at Gao Shenxing. The dozen puppet soldiers guarding around also pulled the bolts and pushed the bullets into the load. The atmosphere in the box suddenly became tense, as if in the next second, Niu Sigen would turn against Gao Shenxing.
However, Niu Sigen did not turn against Gao Shenxing after all. He stared at Gao Shenxing's eyes for more than ten seconds. The expression on Niu Sigen's face eased. With a wave of his hand, the puppet army officer standing behind him and the dozen puppet soldiers around him all lowered their guns. Just now, he just wanted to try Gao Shenxing's courage.
Niu Sigen grabbed his eyes and drank the teacup in front of him, asking Gao Shenxing: "Who are you?"
"The 19th Detachment of the Southern Anhui Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army" Gao Shenxing corrected his face and said solemnly, "I am Gao Shenxing, and I am the deputy captain of the 19th Detachment."
"The Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in southern Anhui Province, the 19th Detachment?"
Niu Sigen vaguely felt familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard of it.
At this time, the puppet army officer standing behind Niu Sigen said something with Niu Sigen's ear. Niu Sigen's face changed again, staring at Gao Shenxing and asked: "You are the ones who destroyed the two Japanese teams in Erlong Mountain?"
Gao Shenxing said lightly: "It's just two teams, we have destroyed more Japanese."
If someone else said this, Niu Sigen might have slapped him a few times, bragging like this, but for some reason, Niu Sigen felt it was trustworthy, but he still asked subconsciously: "It's you really?"
Gao Shenxing spread his hands and smiled and said, "If Captain Gao doesn't believe it, I have no choice. I can't go to the King of Hell to find a few Japanese ghosts to come back, and then prove to Captain Gao that we can kill people.
Niu Sigen stared at Gao Shenxing, and his face began to become unstable. His intuition told him that what Gao Shenxing said was mostly true, and the other party's intention to contact him was also very obvious, that is, he wanted to incorporate him, and then through his turnaround, he gave a fatal blow to the little Japanese in Longkou County from behind.
Deep down, Niu Sigen felt that this was a god-given opportunity anyway
In fact, Niu Sigen never thought of becoming a traitor from the beginning. When Liu Mazi proposed to surrender to the enemy, Niu Sigen also strongly opposed it. But in the end, Liu Mazi still threw Niu Sigen into Japan with Niu Sigen on his back. Because he was worried that Niu Sigen would have a bad thing, Liu Mazi even got Niu Sigen drunk and locked up on the day of the uprising.
When Niu Sigen woke up, Longkou County had already changed. The county government became a Japanese military police force. Liu Mazi transformed into the commander of the Longkou Security Brigade of the Imperial Army, and Niu Sigen also became the commander of the First Regiment. The Imperial Army uniform was put on. Although Niu Sigen was angry, Liu Mazi had ever been kind to him, so he could only pinch his nose and accept it.
If Liu Mazi was still alive, Niu Sigen might have been in a mess with the puppet army.
But just over half a month ago, because Erlongshan made the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in southern Anhui destroy two squads, Liu Mazi was shot by the newly appointed military police captain Jungoro Koji because he was afraid of the enemy and avoided the war. Although Koji was later comforted and appointed Niu Sigen, who was extremely prestigious among the officers and soldiers of the security brigade, was appointed as the acting brigade commander, but Niu Sigen was already determined to rebel.
However, it is not so easy to turn against the enemy. The people in the first brigade were not in harmony. Some officers and soldiers were like Niu Sigen. They were unwilling to accept the enemy when they surrendered to the enemy, but some officers and soldiers were willing to accomplice the tiger. They had done a lot of evil before that, and they turned around and were afraid that it would be difficult to have a good end, so they simply decided to be a lackey with the Japanese.
Another thing is that although the security brigade had guns, the ammunition was locked in the Japanese arsenal. Now around Gao Shenxing, Li Mu's more than a dozen people were empty in the chamber. Without bullets, the rifle could only be used as a fire stick. If you want to turn against the Japanese, it was purely for nothing, so Niu Sigen did not act rashly.
However, if there is a "foreign enemy" cooperation, it will be different
If "foreign enemies" cooperate, the Japanese will distribute ammunition to the security brigade under pressure. At this time, the security brigade will launch a surprise attack from behind, and they will be able to join forces with the "foreign enemies" to fight the Japanese. The possibility of such a thing will greatly increase, but there are risks in the middle.
The risk is, is this guy in front of you really reliable?
Niu Sigen stared at Gao Shenxing, thinking to himself that this guy claimed to be the deputy captain of the 19th Detachment of the Southern Anhui Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army, but who can prove it? If this guy was sent by Xiaosi to test him and he rashly agreed to rebel, then he would not only Niu Sigen, but also hundreds of brothers from the Security Brigade who died.
