Chapter 135: A Message to Captain Huang
Commander Huang was wearing a few soldiers and watched all this under the city gate. When he saw the people complaining, he looked black, and when the old man made the calculation, he gritted his teeth. He could not support less than 250 kilograms of food per year.
This is exploitation. From the northwest, we arrived all the way to Beiping, and went through Hebei to Henan and saw the vast world.
"The country is weak, and people's livelihood is suffering..." In the end, Captain Huang had to sigh, and he was helpless about this. A total of 30,000 dan of food cannot be lost. This is the military order.
He wanted to send back three million kilograms of grain this time, which sounded a lot, but for tens of thousands of troops, it was only more than half a month's food ration.
When he saw Xu Bei bringing a notice to comfort the people's livelihood again, Captain Huang couldn't help but sigh and said in a respectful manner: "This County Magistrate Dong is one of the few good officials. I, Mr. Huang, took the blame for this thrown over."
Reducing the population tax means reducing 10% of the food rations this year, which doesn’t seem to be much! A family can save almost a load of food.
"Group, are you still visiting your master?" asked the adjutant.
"Go, this time I don't need a cent or a millimeter to go to the county town! Lead a platoon and bring the dozens of rifles I prepared with 5,000 bullets, so I won't need anything else." Captain Huang ordered.
"Is it a little too little?" said the adjutant.
"Now is a time of danger, and Master is the focus of serving the country with loyalty! These fifty old guns are also what Master needs now. After all, it is not possible to be a martial artist in this troubled time.
The master mentioned in the letter that he would help get a few guns and some ammunition, so that he could really protect the house. No matter how strong the martial artist is, he would be useless if he couldn't enter.
The country is like a dangerous egg, maybe when it can be used.” Captain Huang said.
"When will you leave?" asked the adjutant.
"Now, go back and clean up." Captain Huang replied.
"Yes!" The adjutant stood attentively and saluted.
Commander Huang returned to the county granary. At this time, Ma Tie had already brought people to wait in the yard! He brought people to bring several mule and horse carriages, filled with grain and a large box.
When Captain Huang entered, his eyes lit up, he laughed loudly, and pulled Ma Tie into the temporary regiment headquarters! This regiment headquarters is a house in the granary yard and also the bedroom of Captain Huang.
"Hahaha... I heard magpies chirping when I woke up at my third brother's house in the morning. I felt that something was going on. It was true.
Brother Ma Tie went to the house to sit."
Ma Tie felt the enthusiasm of Captain Huang and was stunned for a moment! He immediately understood that it was because of these foods and supplies that he was so polite to him. But this was a commander, and he was just a team leader in the police station and did not dare to act rashly.
Ma Tie stood attentively and saluted: "Report to Captain Huang, this is the food and money prepared by Brother San and Director Dong for the brothers of your group. There are 3,000 dans of grain in the ocean, so you can take a look."
"No need, my family can trust you." Captain Huang's smile was restrained and he said seriously. However, he was shocked in his heart. Director Dong was really generous.
If he had gone to collect grain in the past, he would not have been able to get so much food and salary for himself by using a knife and a gun.
"That's good, Brother San asked you to be satisfied? If it's not enough, then find a way." Ma Tie asked.
"Brother, don't be so reserved, sit down and talk." Captain Huang smiled slightly.
Ma Tie sat down and Captain Huang said, "This is a favor! Two thousand dans of grain are enough, and these three thousand oceans of recruitment are more than enough.
But Huang wanted to ask the third brother a question, why did we let our regiment be stationed in the granary? Are you not afraid that I will steal the granary?"
"If Captain Huang is satisfied, he will be fine. I and Brother Xu Bei asked the third brother the question you asked! I feel that what the third brother said makes sense. You are your own brother. You are your own brother and you are keeping this granary, just to open the granary for you if you cannot collect grain, so that you can get enough.
The third brother said that Captain Huang and Xiaowu are brothers! Since they came here, they called themselves brothers, and they were our brothers. Seeing that they were about to fight with the little Japanese, people were bound to die on the battlefield, and there was enough food to eat! If they died in battle, they would be a full devil." Ma Tiegong bowed his hands and smiled.
"I heard this and Brother Ma Tie is very familiar with my junior brother!" Captain Huang took out a cigarette box from his pocket, took out a cigarette and handed it over to ask. He had been thinking about a question since last night, why is it so easy to use in the county town with the reputation of Xiao Wu.
Even if Guo Laosan is the brother of Xiaowu’s junior brother, it would be fine if Director Dong would give him face! But why did the people he had seen were respectful when he mentioned Guo Xiaowu?
This also made Captain Huang even more curious about Guo Xiaowu. He heard from his master that this junior brother is a genius who leads military and martial arts! But he is only eighteen years old this year.
After Ma Tie took the cigarette of Captain Huang with a smile, he took out a foreign fire and lit it! He knew in his heart that Captain Huang was asking about Xiao Wuzi here, which was related to Xiao Wuzi's future.
After Ma Tie took a puff of cigarette and spit out the smoke! After waiting for the Huangtuan for a long time, Ma Tie said: "Little fifth son, if you want to say that the third brother leads his brothers to make a living with his head, we are convinced! We dare to lose the head on our neck for the third brother.
But at first, our brother was because he was the third brother's brother's brother, so he gave him some face. But after experiencing life and death, I no longer think so.
In the county town, we brothers all believe that we can turn against our third brother so much that we can be beaten and not care about anything! We can also offend the bureau chief and stop doing this business.
But we can't make Xiao Wu angry! If he really gets angry and becomes murderous, no one among us can escape, and whoever provokes will die.
Although he is the youngest, he is also the most awesome brother of ours."
Ma Tie said, Shenyoutian looked frightened! At this moment, the horror of Guo Xiaowu's murder at that night appeared in his mind. No one could dodge his bullets, and no one could survive under his gun.
Seeing Ma Tie's reaction, Captain Huang took a deep breath of smoke! He could see the fear that Ma Tie could not help but show when he mentioned Guo Xiaowu. How capable is this junior brother to make a man with his head scared!?
"He is very powerful!? He has killed anyone!" Captain Huang asked.
Ma Tie reacted, laughed and stood up and bowed, saying, "Has I killed someone!? Our brothers have all had blood on their hands, but Xiao Wu's hands have too much blood.
Some things cannot be said more, and that’s all.
But there is a saying that brothers can tell Captain Huang.”
"You said!" Captain Huang said with a solemn expression.
"No matter if others kill people, I'm afraid you don't have as many people as he kills! This is his ability. But our brother asked me to pass on a few words, and Captain Huang will spit out and nail it. If you die in battle, don't say it, but if you live, you must ensure that Xiaowu will live.
If a little Japanese fights, even if everyone in your group dies, Xiao Wuzi will live." Ma Tie said, and he stood at attention and saluted.
Captain Huang stood up with a serious expression, and he did not reply and responded to a military salute very seriously.
"We should leave! Commander Huang knew what I said today." After saying this, Ma Tie called on his brothers to drive away the mule and carriage that had been emptied.
Commander Huang kept looking at Ma Tie's back. He could feel that the county town was from Guo Laosan, and there were many men with hard backs in the entire police station.
"Team, he is threatening you!" the adjutant said angrily.
"You are wrong, he is just warning me! We are concerned about the friendship between teachers. We are playing the emotional card and not treating ourselves as outsiders, and they are also treated as our own brothers." Captain Huang said.
"That's good! This man named Ma Tie is not a good guy, as well as Xu Bei and some policemen who are following them. They have a strong and bloody spirit. They have seen life and death." The adjutant said with a breath.
"Are the things ready?" Captain Huang asked without answering the conversation. Now he was already full of curiosity about Guo Xiaowu and could not wait to visit his master.
