Those mountain people hated these bandits with all their heart, and Xia Yang chose a way to deal with it that was most relieving for the mountain people from the perspective and interests of the mountain people. That is to kill all these bandits without leaving any one behind.
At the foot of the mountain, Xia Yangcai saw Song Yumo who had been waiting there for a long time under an old pine tree.
Seeing Xia Yang and the others coming over, Song Yumo's originally indifferent face suddenly burst into a smile.
She jumped in front of Xia Yang, put one hand behind her back, and stretched out the other hand and said: "Tuanzuo, how did I perform this time?"
Seeing Song Yumo's child-like expression, Xia Yang couldn't help laughing.
He took out a few candies from his jacket pocket, placed them in the center of Song Yumo's palm and said, "This time, you completed the task very well."
Hearing such a simple compliment from Xia Yang, Song Yumo seemed to have received the most noble reward in the world. His eyes were bent into the shape of a crescent moon, looking quite cute.
It¡¯s just that maybe only Xia Yang can appreciate her cuteness. As for the other people in the team, even Dr. Eddie, they all kept a respectful distance from the murderous aura emanating from Song Yumo.
It¡¯s an almost instinctive way for humans to dodge extremely ferocious predatory animals.
Xia Yang could ignore the aura on Song Yumo's body, the murderous aura that was so strong that it was almost substantial. That's because to a certain extent, he and Song Yumo are the same kind.
After receiving the reward from Xia Yang, Song Yumo took the initiative to move to the periphery of the team and actively kept a distance from the rest of the team.
She watched the scenery along the way, or provided security missions for the entire team. But most of the time, as long as Xia Yang didn't call Song Yumo, Song Yumo seemed like a person outside the team.
On the road, they continued as usual, resting most of the day and only starting to march at night, thus hiding the whereabouts of the troops to the greatest extent possible.
At this time, Lingqiu County had become an area occupied by the Japanese army.
But now the Japanese army is busy carrying out the Taiyuan Battle and wants to occupy all of Shanxi, thereby threatening the western part of Henan, and even advancing into Shaanxi and southward to Sichuan.
So for Lingqiu County, they only occupied the county seat and some areas around the county seat. As for the vast rural areas, they have not yet established a complete puppet regime.
Xia Yang knew that this was their best opportunity to expand their power. If he waits until the little devils start to establish their puppet regime in Lingqiu County, and then wants to establish his own power in Lingqiu County, he will need to take a big risk.
And this time, Xia Yang wiped out this group of bandits who were harming the countryside, which was a stepping stone.
No matter what, by eliminating the bandits this time, Xia Yang will definitely win the hearts of the people in the surrounding areas of Taibai Mountain. But converting these people's hearts into combat effectiveness and support for them requires Xia Yang and his men to carry out further work.
They returned to the ancient city of Mongyuan at noon the next day.
The first thing Xia Yang did when he returned to Mengyuan Ancient City was to hang the heads of the bandit leaders on the city walls of Mengyuan Ancient City.
Among them, Da Ziliang¡¯s face has been seen by many people in Hujiacun. Especially Hu Jingyi's grandfather, he could recognize Da Ziliang even if he turned into ashes.
So when he saw Da Ziliang¡¯s head hanging on the top of the ancient city of Mongolia and Yuan Dynasty, the old man sat in front of his wife¡¯s grave for a whole day with a pot of rice wine in his arms.
Xia Yang spread the word to other villages through various methods.
Propaganda is one aspect. Xia Yang also discounted the losses of the villagers who were robbed. Compensate them.
After all, many of the things seized from the bandits actually belong to the villagers.
Although Xia Yang needed money, he could not take the money from these poor people. After distributing part of the money to the people who had been robbed, the Qinglong Village incident came to an end.
And Xia Yang and his troops gradually gained a unique name among these mountain people.
These simple mountain people regard them as heavenly soldiers and generals who come from heaven to punish evil and promote good. In private, they all secretly call them¡ª¡ªArmy!
Although this is a bit superstitious, Xia Yang is happy to see the common people and demystify them. Because this is actually very helpful in concealing their whereabouts and true identity.
Even if the Japanese notice them, they will not immediately think of their true identities.
Since the people's support already exists, Xia Yang naturally wants to use these people's support to recruit troops among these mountain people.
"And Xia Yang's purpose of recruiting troops at the beginning was not to fight against Japan, but to suppress bandits.
For these mountain people, the Japs still exist in legends and do not really threaten their survival. The Japanese army has been attacking big cities and important county towns, and has not had time to carry out large-scale raids in rural areas.
So if Xia Yang was recruiting troops to fight against Japan, the effect would probably not be good enough. After all, for these mountain people, the Japanese existed more in legends.
But bandits are a real threat to them.
In addition to Qinglong Village, there are traces of bandit activities near Lingqiu County, including neighboring Laiyuan County, and even Wutai Mountain and Hengshan area.
So by recruiting troops in the name of suppressing bandits, the enthusiasm of these mountain people suddenly became high.
Nearly every village in their village has been threatened by bandits, and some people have even died in the hands of bandits. As soon as they heard that they were going to suppress bandits and eliminate all the bandits who harmed them, the mood of these mountain people suddenly became high.
In just a few days, He Changxing and Liu Fudong recruited more than 500 new soldiers around Taibai Mountain.
There are also some older mountain people, although their enthusiasm is very high, their bodies no longer allow them to carry out high-intensity training. So after some screening, these more than 500 recruits were left in the end.
This is just the result of a few days, and there will definitely be more new recruits joining in the future.
Xia Yang handed over the task of training new soldiers to He Changxing and Ma Siyuan.
Both of them graduated from Huangpu Military Academy. After entering the ancient city of Mongolia, Xia Yang specially taught them new infantry training methods. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
