    Chapter 44 Unparalleled Loyalty

    It¡¯s just that for the Third Manchukuo Army composed of bandits, artillery support is a luxury, and several 50mm grenade launchers do not have anti-tank capabilities.

    The intensive shelling in the past ten minutes alone was enough to frighten the Third Puppet Manchukuo Army, most of which were bandits.  They had just been transferred from Lengkou to Gubeikou. Unexpectedly, they would encounter the main force of the Japanese counterattack on the first day. Now the Cavalry King remembered how good Lengkou was. Lengkou was so good. Shang Zhen's 32nd Army did not dare to do this.  Cannonballs are used as dumplings.

    Before he could reach the stable, several loud blasts of air knocked the Cavalry King off his feet. The Cavalry King was shocked: a large-caliber howitzer.  The Cavalry King, who was once the commander of the Northeast Army's cavalry company, knew how powerful this thing was. If the shot was fired accurately, an entire company could be wiped out.

    The King of Cavalry looked up and took a closer look. The impact point of the artillery shell was the position of the Little Japanese troops a few hundred meters away. Many people from the Third Puppet Manchukuo Army ran to where they were after the shelling.  I think it will be better if I follow my master. What's the point? I'll be bombed all the same. The little devil is not immortal.  But it doesn¡¯t matter if the kid is dead, but he won¡¯t be able to carry him when he¡¯s running.

    At this time, Ermaozi, who was left by the riding king to look after the horses, and several horsemen came running over with a group of horses: "Second Master, get on the horse quickly."

    The King of Cavalry got on his horse and looked back, and said in surprise: "How come there are only more than a hundred horses left? Where are the horses?"

    Ermaozi replied: "Forget it, second boss. The stable was hit by the shells and was so injured that it ran away. The few of us managed to get out of the stable before it collapsed."

    Hearing this, the Cavalry King's eyes darkened and he almost fell off his horse. When the leader Liu Hei divided his troops, he gave half of the cavalry and personnel to the Cavalry King. Qian Dingzhu and Wan told these cavalrymen and horses to be saved. Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, they  That's all that's left.  King Qi thought of Liu Heiqi's kindness and shed tears: "I can't help the boss."

    Er Maozi said: "Second head of the family, you can keep the green hills and don't worry about having no firewood. Gather the brothers and let's go."

    "Let's go." After the sad ending, the riding king clamped his horse's belly, and the strong horse started running with hooves.  When he met a bandit cavalry king on the road, he reached down and grabbed the man's belt and put him on the empty horseback beside him. The person who was put on the horseback felt as if he was flying through the clouds and was transformed from an infantryman into a cavalryman.

    Only the Cavalry King in the entire Puppet Manchukuo Third Army could do this feat. No one except Liu Heiqi knew the Cavalry King's surname, but because of his superb riding skills, he was called the Cavalry King, and no one asked him.  I care about my real name.  This is the rule among bandits. Generally, everyone does not bring their real names to the mountains. Firstly, they are afraid of harming their families, and secondly, they are afraid of losing their ancestors.  This is why every hero in Liangshan has a nickname. After all, bandits are not very honorable, and being a traitor is even more shameful.  The roster of the Third Manchukuo Army contains only a few surnames that are among the hundreds of surnames.

    The Cavalry King thought it would be easier for him to switch defenses with the First Manchukuo Army, but in fact it was not so easy. Shang Zhen¡¯s Thirty-Second Army was a bit weaker, but with whom to compare in terms of score, it was definitely better than the Seventeenth Army and the Twenty-ninth Army.  What's not good is that even if they try to catch up, they can't catch up. Their equipment and fighting will are two ways behind the Japanese army, but they are still much stronger than the First Army of the Puppet Manchukuo.

    The 32nd Army is supplied by the Peking Military and Administrative Department. Each regiment has an anti-aircraft platoon, including three anti-aircraft machine guns. Each division also has twelve mountain grenades. As for the heavy machine guns, it is decentralized to the battalion and company level, mortars and combat defense.  Cannons also have a small amount of equipment.

    The First Army of the Puppet Manchukuo was also a bandit force recruited by the Japs. The bandit leader had been an anti-Japanese hero for several months after September 18th. However, the Japs¡¯ intelligence work was too strong and the sugar-coated shells were powerful enough. A few of them were very good at serving others.  The woman with the chicken in the foot pot was sent to Zai Yuntian. After a few days, Zai Yuntian, who had been trapped in the gentle land of makeup and pink, felt that resisting Japan was meaningless. The only way to make a fortune is to work together to make a fortune.

    A few days later, the banner at Yuntian Village was changed from the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Pioneer Army to the First Army of the Puppet Manchukuo.  It's just that there are negative effects of eating sugar coating and artillery shells together. Most of the more than 100,000 anti-Japanese and national salvation vanguard troops who originally listened to Yuntian's orders fled within a few days of Yuntian's change of flag.

    However, this is actually a good thing for Yuntian. You must know that the little devil distributes wages and weapons according to the roster of more than 100,000 people provided by Yuntian. If he allows his more than 30,000 men to change a few more camps, Yuntian can  Received an additional salary of 70,000 people.

    It¡¯s just that this trick almost leaked in the first month. A kid in charge of distributing military pay saw a familiar soldier and asked, ¡°I think I¡¯ve seen you before.¡±

    The soldiers did not dare to answer and stood at attention.  The little devil gave out military pay to thousands of people a day just because he thought he had admitted the wrong person.  Relying on this strategy, a lot of silver dollar certificates issued by the Bank of Manchuria and Japanese military bills were obtained in Yuntian.

    It was only later that the little devil led the First Army in Yuntian to suppress the bandits several times, and found that there were only more than 30,000 enemies in Yuntian each time, and this trick was revealed.  butThe little Japanese didn't care much, because the Japanese military notes and silver dollars were just a piece of waste paper when rolled out of Manchuria. Even in Manchuria, they couldn't be exchanged for hard currencies such as silver dollars or gold (which means they couldn't be exchanged in banks) in Yuntian.  The more money you get, the more devoted you will be to serving the imperial army.

    As for the money, dear, it is just paper with patterns and numbers printed on it. Currency without reserves is worthless.  Nowadays, these silver dollar rolls can still be bought in the market in Manchuria, but once the Japanese lose Manchuria, the money will really become waste paper.

    Therefore, even though this matter was exposed, the little devil did not send Zai Yuntian to the Military Justice Department to be shot. Instead, in view of the large number of people fleeing from Zai Yuntian's tribe, he reduced the military salary of the 100,000 people of his First Army to 50,000.  Instead of sending people to pay the First Army, let it be handed over to Yuntian, and let him pay it. In this way, Yuntian can still get a lot of free pay.

    Not only did he get the benefits, but he was also dedicated to being a hard-core traitor for his own benefit in Yuntian. This time, when Shang Zhen's Ministry launched an all-out attack, Yuntian was the first to lead the supervising team to watch from behind. During Shang Zhen's bombardment, the Puppet Manchukuo was the first  The army was also shaken. Many people threw away their guns in the face of the bombardment. They killed more than twenty deserters in front of the running team organized by Yuntian before stabilizing the front.  After Yuntian ordered those who escaped to beheaded and hang them on a flagpole as a warning, the morale of the army was stabilized.

    After the bombardment, the Puppet Manchukuo First Army in Yuntian and the 32nd Army that rushed a hundred meters away began to shoot at each other.  Although Shang Zhen's Thirty-Second Army had an advantage in terms of exchange ratio, the resistance in Yuntian allowed the Puppet Manchukuo First Army to wait for belated reinforcements from the Japs.  The little Japanese with only one regiment used bayonets and grenades to teach the 32nd Army a lesson, and rescued the First Puppet Manchukuo Army and slowly moved towards Chengde.
