A few days later, Zhang Wei's telegram was replied, and Chief Du was very satisfied with the field training of the Second Supplementary Regiment, and in the reply telegram, the officers and soldiers of the Second Supplementary Regiment and Zhang Wei were verbally rewarded, and the two soldiers who died in battle were also approved by the army, and Hu Gui, a private from Guizhou, sent a death notice and a pension of more than 2,000 yuan in legal currency directly according to the address recorded in his military registration, as well as a document exempting the men of Hu Gui's family from military service, which means that if there are still men in Hu Gui's family, Then these men do not have to go to military service or hard labor.
And the corporal Zhang Daniu, who is from Shandong, because his hometown is in the occupied area, so this pension can only be temporarily recorded, these two soldiers, under the current pension system of the national army, have received good treatment, the vast majority of soldiers, after dying on the battlefield, will not be able to get the pension, and even the notice of death in battle may not be sent to home.
Private Hu Gui and Corporal Zhang Daniu, Zhang Wei have already won the best favor they can achieve.
As for the issue of "banditry," the military department also made some efforts and gave Zhang Wei the reply he could find, first of all, he expressed his consolation to the Second Supplementary Regiment and Zhang Wei, telling Zhang Wei not to be anxious, and then it was to transfer a report on the bandit situation transferred from the local government; although the military headquarters of the Fifth Army has been stationed in the Quanzhou area of Guangxi for a long time, it has not had much contact with local complicated affairs, and the circular forwarded to Zhang Wei was also requested from the local department, and what was recorded in it was the activities and cases of some bandits and rogue bandits that have been seen recently.
The reply to the record of the enemy situation in the telegram is not so much a report as a collection of a large number of cases and an encyclopedia of bandit gangs, all of which are records of crimes and basic information about the perpetrators.
According to the report on the bandits, this group of bandits is very happy, robbing caravans, robbing the people, large and small cases are all committed, there are people who kill people and goods, there are people who attack villages and kill people, the most ruthless thing is to fight with the local security regiment and the police, and they also won, all kinds of bandits, bandits abound, almost every day people commit crimes, looking for the statement on the telegram, the scale is not large, but it is swimming around.
Zhang Wei thought, the gang of bandits who started with the second regiment of the supplement is estimated to be this kind of goods, old bandits who have accumulated years, and the frequency of recent cases has become more and more intense, and the bandits that Xue Rong said are indeed not nonsense, the telegram recorded that the bandits are local to Guangxi, the gangs are large and small, and there are small bandits who have fled in from Hunan, and the name of the bandits is also called "Peng is called a donkey," this gang is very strong in combat, and it has completely annihilated two scattered security companies, and also attacked several landlords' compounds, maneuvering around, committing crimes everywhere, and has a very strong combat power, disturbing the local security forces and militia groups.
The bandits from Hunan not only fought alone, but also reportedly cooperated with the local bandits in Guangxi to commit crimes together, and the local security forces described in the telegram as follows: "Small units with many roads, many fast horses, retreat as soon as the action is successful, kill people fiercely, and it is difficult to pursue." ” Judging from the characteristics of the crimes reported by the security forces, the modus operandi of the people who attacked the Supplementary Second Regiment was very similar, that they all left with one vote and used horses to move quickly.
Generally speaking, according to the display in this telegram, the situation of the bandits in Guangxi, including the bandits near the garrison of the Fifth Army, should not be underestimated, and although the scale of the crimes is not large, most of them are small-scale fights and troubles, and small-scale attacks and attacks are mainly on a straight line, but they are rising in a straight line.
Now that the war with the Japanese army is in full swing, Guangxi and Hunan, the strategic location is very important, the bandits in these two places communicate with each other, and make trouble everywhere, which is not good for resisting the Japanese attack, and if small-scale bandits become large-scale banditry, then the situation will not be good.
After reading the telegram, Zhang Wei faintly felt that this group of bandits was going to make a big deal sooner or later.
However, the local government obviously does not care much about the problem of banditry, otherwise, how could the local government use a bunch of basic documents and records to perfunctory when the Fifth Army asks about the banditry The bandits are making more and more noise, the local government and the armed bandits are not effective, and the attitude is perfunctory "Hmph, it seems that this gang of bandits is not the first time to do this, before the sneak attack on us, I am afraid that they have already practiced with the local security forces, this attack method and retreat method is the same as the sneak attack on our gang, I think this is a group of people, regiment commander, since we want to take revenge, let's apply directly to the military department and go out to fight the bandits" In the regiment headquarters, after reading the telegram, the second battalion commander Mu Chao said angrily, it was the sixth company of the second battalion that had the accident, and with the news of the bandits, Mu Chao was naturally clamoring to defeat the bandits, and something happened to his own troops, Mu Chao actually felt that he had lost face, so he urgently wanted revenge.
"We are not afraid of fighting bandits, but these bandits are not large, and their mobility is fast, we are a field army, and the battle has begun, but it may not be effective against bandits."
Qiu Wei said.
"Then sit back and ignore the regiment commander, but after saying that this revenge will be avenged, the soldiers of my sixth company are still affected by this incident."
"It's not that I won't fight, this matter has to be decided by the head of the regiment."
That's right, Zhang Wei said that this revenge will be avenged, in fact, the reason why he asked the military department for bandit love is also very simple, that is, to understand the bandits in order to achieve the goal of finally defeating the bandits, the best way to take revenge is to destroy this group of bandits, and by the way, they can also train and train the troops, and boost the morale of the troops.
Let the soldiers vent their anger and influence after being attacked by fighting bandits, but the objective situation is also here, the bandits are too scattered and too small to fight.
"It makes sense" Zhang Wei's words interrupted the officers' argument.
"I said that this revenge will be avenged, then this group of bandits is not alive, but, although the bandits are getting more and more fierce now, but the scale is still small after all, I can't take out a group of people, and dozens of people are scurrying around, or hundreds of bandits are scattered, that is a rifle to fight mosquitoes, can't make a lot of effort, we have to wait, that is, the bandits make a big noise, and when these people make a fuss, we will apply to the top, when the time comes, no matter what bandits he is, wouldn't it be a net to catch them all" Mu Chao, who was anxious, said again: "Then we have to wait until the Year of the Monkey and the Moon."
Zhang Wei chuckled: "You look at the frequency of these bandits, and the help of those rice buckets in the place, that is, a matter of a few months, when they become big, it will be the day of their demise." ：。
