    Wawashan. Headquarters of Shandong Guerrilla Corps.

    Li Guoyao, Wang Zhanhai, Xu Hu, Ma Desheng and Liang Yong were all gathered in the combat headquarters. There were a lot of documents in front of them, and everyone had a serious look on their face.

    After Li Guoyao put a document in his hand on the table, he asked in a deep voice: "Liang Yong, are you sure this is just the strength of one branch in Zaozhuang?"

    Liang Yong said sternly: "Commander, you can't be wrong. This is indeed the overall situation of the Zaozhuang branch of Yiguandao. It is the intelligence obtained by our people after they penetrated into Yiguandao!"

    Xu Hu also said with surprise: "It's really unimaginable that a small branch has hundreds of thousands of believers and tens of thousands of armed personnel. It's really scary!"

    Wang Zhanhai said: "The most terrifying thing is that this Taoist sect has been infiltrated by the Japanese. More than half of the top management of the branch are traitors and lackeys. Even the instructors of the Guards are puppet soldiers and Japanese. If things go on like this, this Taoist sect will  It is likely to become the largest counterfeiting force in Shandong!"

    "It's not possible, your worries have already happened!"

    Then Li Guoyao continued: "What you have seen is only the situation of one branch in Zaozhuang. You must know that Yiguandao has six branches in Shandong, and there are more nationwide. I estimate that Yiguandao has at least one or two branches in Shandong.  There are millions of believers, and there are at least 100,000 escorts like that. Think about how many puppet troops there are under the puppet Shandong Provincial Government. So far, there seem to be more than a dozen brigades, totaling less than 40,000.  Comparing the two, the answer is self-evident!¡±

    "No wonder the commander wants to attack these Taoist forces, it turns out there is a reason!"

    "Who is the commander? He must be justified in taking action!"

    At this time, Ma Desheng said: "Commander, it is said that there are thousands of protective guards in Zaozhuang branch, and the number of troops equipped with spears alone is five to six thousand. How can we fight?"

    Li Guoyao thought for a while and said: "Fighting these Taoist forces is different from fighting the devils. Fighting the devils is to annihilate them all, killing one less one. But these Taoist forces can only eliminate the culprits, but not all of them!"

    "Yes, those ordinary members are all ordinary people nearby. A large part of them were deceived before joining, and some were simply coerced and coerced to join. It would be wrong to treat them all as enemies.  Not to mention fairness, it can easily cause backlash!" Xu Hu said.

    Li Guoyao nodded and said: "So we don't need to use the main force in this battle, we only need to send out elite squads!"

    "Commander, are you talking about special operations, beheading operations?" Zhang Shaolin said.

    "Yes, it is a beheading operation, but this requires the full cooperation of the intelligence department!"

    "No problem, our intelligence department has already figured out the situation in nearby counties and districts. As long as the commander is determined, we will fully cooperate!" Liang Yong replied.

    "In that case, how can you, Commander, use fighting as a substitute for training?" Xu Hu asked puzzledly.

    Li Guoyao laughed loudly and said: "Of course you don't need the main force to fight against these Taoist forces, but you can use it to fight against the little devils!"

    Then Li Guoyao continued: "Yiguandao has close ties with the Japanese. Once they are attacked, the Japs will definitely not stand idly by and will definitely send troops to reinforce. At this time, our main force will come in handy, or to surround the points for reinforcements."  Ambushing or blocking enemy reinforcements are both good opportunities to train troops."

    "The commander is right. As long as we take the initiative, we can lead the little devil by the nose. The casualties of the troops can also be controlled. It is definitely a good opportunity to train troops!" Wang Zhanhai said.

    "Well, let's do it like this. Commander, give the order!" Xu Hu said.

    Li Guoyao nodded and said solemnly: "Order: The special operations team and the headquarters guard will be the main force in this battle, and the intelligence department, each column and the directly affiliated troops will cooperate fully!"

    "yes!"

    "Order: From now on, each column will stop training new recruits, replenish its organizational structure, and distribute ammunition to front-line troops, ready for orders at any time!"

    "yes!"

    Following Li Guoyao¡¯s order, all new and old troops of the Shandong Guerrilla Corps took action!

    However, because their activity range is not large and most of them are concentrated in mountainous areas, neither the little devils in Zaozhuang City nor the Yiguandao sub-tanks scattered in various places noticed anything unusual.

    Especially those in the pipeline, they never thought that Li Guoyao and others would do anything to them!

      In fact, it¡¯s no wonder, this has something to do with the National Government¡¯s attitude towards Taoist forces!

    First of all, in the early days of the founding of the Republic of China, the social soil on which these Taoist gangs relied for survival was not eradicated. Therefore, the power of the Taoist gangs continued to develop after entering the Republic of China period.

    And unlike the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the sects and gangs during the Republic of China, whether they were inherited from the Ming and Qing Dynasties, or those that appeared under the names of "hui" and "she" during the Republic of China, were not prone to being banned.  Most of them can travel unimpeded, mainly due to the participation, support, and even manipulation and use of warlords, bureaucrats, politicians, and foreign forces.

    After the establishment of the Nanjing National Government, the Kuomintang attached great importance to the existence of this group of people.  In order to effectively utilize and bring these forces within the scope of its control, the Nanjing National Government classified these people into religious groups and charitable groups, such as the Universal Moral Society as a family and education group, the World Red Cross as a charity group, and the Confucian Society of China as a charity group.  As a public welfare society, etc.

    At the same time, the Kuomintang actively used Taoist gangs to harass the base areas established by the CCP. Within the red base areas, there were also armed forces such as the Red Spear Society and the Fan Society to subvert the regime.  For example, the Dadaohui in the Fujian and Jiangxi regions cooperated with the Kuomintang army in encirclement and suppression of the Central Soviet Area, and attacked the Red Army from time to time to disrupt social order.

    In the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, in view of the extreme chaos of China's political and social situation and the strong power of the Taoist sect, the Kuomintang actively supported and even established the Taoist sect in an attempt to use the power of the Taoist sect to strengthen the anti-Japanese force, and indeed achieved certain results.

    For example, after the August 13th Incident in Shanghai, Chiang appointed senior officials to negotiate with gang leaders Du Yuesheng, Xiang Haiqian, Wang Xiaolai, Qian Xinzhi and others to form a special force of Shanghai gang forces to cooperate with the national army in combat, contain and block the Japanese army in the suburbs of Shanghai, and  Cooperate with the security forces to strictly prevent and eliminate harassment activities by enemy spies and traitors.

    Under Jiang's instruction, Du Yuesheng took the lead in establishing the "Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Anhui Action Committee", a gang organization that specialized in organizing and leading the Qinghong Gang forces in Shanghai, and established a guerrilla army under the committee, with a total of 20,000 people.  They are all members of the Qinghong Gang.  When the Japanese troops landed, the Rangers actively cooperated with the Kuomintang troops.

    Afterwards, Dai Li announced in Qimen, southern Anhui, that the southern Anhui unit of the Jiangsu-Zhejiang-Anhui Action Committee would be reorganized into the "Loyalty and National Salvation Army" teaching regiment.  Since then, the Loyalty and National Salvation Army has developed rapidly with the strong support of gang forces. By the spring of 1939, it had grown to have 14 detachments, 4 directly affiliated brigades, and 2 teaching corps, boasting 50,000 people.

    After the fall of Shanghai, the Kuomintang established the "Shanghai Unification Committee" at the suggestion of Du Yuesheng to coordinate the activities of the Jiangsu Provincial Party Headquarters, the Central Unification Committee, the Military Unification Secret Service and other organizations in the occupied Shanghai area.

    The Shanghai Unification Committee used the gang power in Shanghai to use intimidation, persuasion and other methods to force Shanghai's financial and business people, technical workers, educated youth, etc. to move to the rear. Even those who left Shanghai tried their best to persuade them not to cooperate with the Japanese and puppets.

    Under such circumstances, the National Government still has a very high tolerance for Taoist forces. As long as they do not openly surrender to the enemy, they will generally ignore them, let alone directly condemn them with force.

    "But those traitors in Yiguandao did not expect that the person who wanted to touch them was not the top officials of the National Government at all, but just a poor and crazy alien.

    Of course, Li Guoyao was not just for food and money, nor was it all for military training. He also wanted to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys by attacking Yiguandao. Unfortunately, Li Guoyao regarded Yiguandao as the chicken that scares the monkeys!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
