The Two Heroes of the Ye Family

He used his second brother Ye Minghao's connections to get him a special pass issued by the Japanese gendarmerie stationed in Shanghai.

In just ten days, Ye Xiaoyang reached Shuanglin Town near Baguan Mountain.

Ye Xiaoyang didn't expect that it was Cheng Dahu and his men waiting for his arrival in Shuanglin Town.

"Master Ye, you've worked hard along the way!"

"Brother Cheng, what's the big deal? Aren't we all the same? Besides, you arrived early, so you must be working harder."

"Young Master Ye, shall we stay in Shuanglin Town for one night? We'll probably be heading to the mountains around 7 or 8 in the evening if we leave now.

Besides, I have something to do..."

Cheng Dahu's eyes were evasive, not daring to look Ye Xiaoyang in the eye.

Ye Xiaoyang knew something was wrong at first glance. It must be a big deal, otherwise Cheng Dahu wouldn't be like this.

"Brother Cheng, we are brothers. There is nothing we cannot say."

"Young Master Ye..."

"Speaking of which, the sky won't fall."

"Young Master Ye, our 11th Special Forces Squadron was the first to arrive near Bagong Mountain.

Later, I heard from fellow villagers nearby that a group of people were stationed inside Bagua Mountain.

Ask if this group of people in the mountain often come down the mountain to steal things from the villagers' homes?

But the villagers said that this group of people were not robbing, but borrowing. But the villagers did not dare to refuse because this group of people had guns.

Call them bandits? They only wanted some food to take back, but they didn't rob women or beat anyone.

They seem a little different from the bandits of the past."

Cheng Dahu looked at Ye Xiaoyang's face while speaking. He was a little worried and continued:

“This group of people forcibly borrowed things from fellow villagers and probably have no intention of returning them.

We, the brothers of the 11th Special Forces Team, discussed together and decided to drive them away if it really didn’t work.

When the time comes, our 11th Special Forces Detachment will give them some travel expenses. Maybe they want to go back but have no money.

They have no choice but to become bandits, and our 11th Special Forces Squad cannot wipe them out completely."

"That makes sense, at least they didn't rob or do anything harmful.

Of course, we, the brothers of the special forces squad, cannot kill them all.

Then what's the difference between us and the Japanese devils?"

"Young Master Ye, this is what we brothers think.

The brothers thought that a big battle was about to begin. The Japanese devils were only a few hundred miles away from Jiangxia City, and they had just captured Yicheng.

This group of people is also inappropriate on Bagong Mountain, and we cannot let them know our background."

"Well, that's the right idea."

"My brothers and I stayed in the village for one night and paid 100 yuan to the villagers.

We didn't explain what we were doing, and we didn't even let the villagers see our guns.

I bought food and vegetables from the villagers and borrowed their pots to cook dinner.

That night, my brothers and I sneaked up to Bagua Mountain. Unexpectedly, some of the people on the mountain were my former subordinates.

They said at the time that they were leaving Hujiang to find their previous group, and some of them were going back to their hometown. I didn't expect them to be here.

The most crucial person was Li Xiaoshan, a brother from the 11th Special Forces Team. He couldn't help but called out Li Erniu's name.

They used to be from the same village.

Li Erniu didn't expect that someone among the group of people who surrounded them and confiscated their guns called his name.

Li Xiaosan knew in an instant that he was in trouble, and he hoped that Li Erniu would not remember his voice.

What happened was that Li Erniu reacted immediately and called out Li Xiaosan's name.

Then he started crying. He guessed that these masked men were his former brothers.

The others reacted and started shouting at the battalion commander, asking why he didn't recognize them as brothers.

I’m sorry, Master Ye.”

Ye Xiaoyang was also surprised by this coincidence. Cheng Dahu continued:

"The brothers reacted quickly and asked the brothers who were not from our previous camp to go aside first.

You can't come without notification.

In this situation, the hundred of us could only remove the masks on our faces.

When the others saw me inside, they all started crying and said that they shouldn't have left Hujiang and left me at that time.

All the brothers in the 11th Special Forces Squad didn't dare to speak, as they had all sworn an oath."

"You go on."

“Thank you, Master Ye, everyone is looking at me, and I know they are looking at my attitude.

It is naturally impossible to let them join the 11th Special Forces Team.

But I couldn't just leave them alone, so I told them I could give them some travel expenses and let them go back home directly.

Thirty dollars per person.

But they said that they wanted to find their former troops in order to fight the Japanese devils.

The Japanese devils are coming soon. It would be better to kill them with one shot than to let them go back to their hometown.

The brothers who went back to their hometowns have already gone back, but they don’t know where their former group is.

"Where are they now? How many are there?"

"I arranged for them to stay in a village called Dahe Village near Shuanglin Town and gave them some money.

For the time being, there are no problems in their lives.

There are more than 60 of my former brothers, plus soldiers who were separated from other units.

They have about a company strength.”

Ye Xiaoyang was naturally well aware that a company of the Deep Blue government army consisted of 120 people.

"Are those 60 people also the soldiers who were scattered in the Battle of Hujiang?"

"Yes, and it's Commander Liu's Sichuan Army."

"Brother Cheng, it's impossible for you to join the special forces team, but you and they are brothers after all.

Give them some money so that they can take care of themselves. We won't be stationed in Baguan Mountain for long.

I don’t know whether other teams have detected the Japanese devils’ battalion or regiment that has escaped from the isolation.

After our special forces team destroys the Japanese devils' battalion and regiment, let them collect these weapons.

However, when you meet them again, you can only wear masks. It doesn't matter if they guess what happened with the special forces team.

As long as they don't betray the relatives and families of the brothers of the 11th Special Forces Team.

Otherwise, don't blame me for being cruel.

No one in the Deep Blue government army took them in, so they stayed near Bafen Mountain and fought guerrilla warfare.

Even if the Japanese devils occupied Jiangxia, there was still much room for development in the rural areas.

With the weapons and equipment of several Japanese devils' battalions, they had the capital to survive.

They can find a nearby militia brigade and exchange these weapons and equipment for the food they need.

The Communist Party’s militia brigade must be short of weapons and equipment. These are the weapons and equipment of the Japanese devils, and they must want them.

If they want to kill the Japanese devils in the future, they can continue.

With these weapons and equipment of the Japanese devils, and if we improve our physical fitness, we will at least not lose to the Japanese devils.

Now they are using the Hanyang-gun rifles to kill the Japanese devils. What's the difference between them and cannon fodder?

Although it may not sound good, it is better than losing your life. There is no point in making unnecessary sacrifices.

Personally, I think it might be better for this group of people to choose to join the Communist Party.

They joined the Communist Party with a large number of weapons, and the Communist Party organization should not treat these veterans harshly.

Being abandoned by the Deep Blue government and army and then joining the Communist Party does not count as a traitor to the Deep Blue government and army."

Cheng Dahu had not thought about Ye Shao's suggestion. He knew that Ye Shao would definitely not take in his former brothers.

Young Master Ye gave them a chance back then, but they failed to seize it, so they can't blame anyone else.

Not everyone is qualified to join the special forces squad. That's life. Once you make the choice, you have to accept your fate.

Cheng Dahu felt that he had done his best by preparing more weapons and equipment for his former brothers and giving them some money.

He can accept this result.

Moreover, from beginning to end, Ye Shao never blamed them for being recognized by their former brothers.

This is already the best result. Mystery is the special forces team's greatest asset.

He had no way of interfering with how his former brothers chose their future destinies.

He is no longer their battalion commander.

Joining the Communist Party organization is indeed a good choice.

In this way, they will be less likely to betray the relatives of their brothers in the 11th Special Forces Team.

The reputation of the Communist Party organization is still very good.

Cheng Dahu prayed in his heart, hoping that these old brothers would not make the wrong choice again.

It is certainly not possible to become a bandit. A team without financial support will sooner or later run into problems.

There are many examples of people being unable to make a hero fall for a penny. This is just the cruel reality.

Cheng Dahu had already learned from Luo Qiushan and others that it was Ye Shao who led his ten senior brothers to hold back the Japanese devils.

At that time, more than 300 of them were able to escape safely from the Mint Building and reach the International Settlement across the Gusu River.

Sometimes, Cheng Dahu felt quite unhappy about his brothers leaving.

If more than 300 people stayed behind, the attack on Obara Airport could completely wipe out the large group of Japanese devils stationed at the airport.

More than 300 to 1100, the ratio is less than 1:4, Ye Shao must agree.
