Along the way, Zhao Dezhu had already reminded Li Yunfei that the situation of Regiment 337 was a little complicated, but he also conveyed Li Guobiao's words and told Li Yunfei not to worry.
Obviously, Li Guobiao also knew Wang Caihou. Otherwise, Zhao Dezhu wouldn't have passed on his words.
In fact, even without Li Guobiao, Li Yunfei would definitely not be afraid.
He was here to fight the Japanese, not to build a relationship with anyone. Let alone Zhu Huaibing's brother-in-law, even if it was the king of heaven, Li Yunfei wouldn't take him seriously.
As for Xu Jinxi, Li Guobiao mentioned him many times in the materials he gave Li Yunfei.
Xu Jinxi was quite capable, but he was not good at being a person, which meant that he did not know how to flatter others. Therefore, after graduating from Huangpu Military Academy, he was still a battalion commander. Moreover, a month ago, the 337th Regiment was defeated by the Sakata United Army, and the responsibility was pushed to him by Wang Caihou. Although he still retained the position of battalion commander, his military rank was demoted from major to captain.
What made Li Yunfei even more satisfied was that when he introduced Wang Caihou, Xu Jinxi did not explain himself at all or add any embellishment.
"How many men does the Second Battalion have now?" Xu Jinxi asked.
"Captain, the 2nd Battalion has over 300 people. They are all from Wang Caihou's original security team.”Xu Jinxi reported.
"Is there anyone useful inside?”Li Yunfei asked.
Xu Jinxi shook his head decisively and said,"Only a few can be used."
"Where is Wang Caihou now?”Li Yunfei asked.
"I know where Zhou Zhuang is.”Xu Jinxi said.
"Do you have the guts to bring me there?" Li Yunfei stood up and asked.
"Regiment commander, when the 1st Battalion returns, we'll go together.”Xu Jinxi saw the killing intent flashing in Li Yunfei's eyes and advised.
"Could it be that Wang Caihou still dares to do anything to me?”Li Yunfei laughed and walked out of the regiment headquarters. He ordered Zhao Dezhu at the door,"Follow me to Zhouzhuang."
When Xu Jinxi heard this, he gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, hurriedly following behind.
At this moment, in the barracks on both sides of the drill ground, many soldiers of the Second Battalion had walked out of their barracks. Looking at Li Yunfei who had walked out of the regimental headquarters, they pointed at him and whispered something.
Li Yunfei ignored these soldiers and walked straight out of the encampment.
Zhao Dezhu's security platoon followed closely behind. Xu Jinxi jogged a few steps and led the way.
After a few minutes, the group entered Zhouzhuang.
Zhouzhuang was peaceful. Smoke rose from the chimneys at dusk. There were herdsmen driving their sheep back to their pens, and children were playing in the village.
However, when they saw Li Yunfei and his group, the children who were playing all showed fear and hurried home.
Li Yunfei's expression became even uglier. As a national army, he was supposed to be the protector of the people. The child's eyes and expression made Li Yunfei feel a little uncomfortable.
"What is Wang Caihou doing in Zhouzhuang?" As they walked, Li Yunfei asked Xu Jinxi.
"The wife of the local head guard is Wang Caihou's new lover.”Xu Jinxi paused for a moment and gritted his teeth."Three days ago, Zhou Zhuang's head guard died for no reason.”
When Li Yunfei heard this, his heart grew colder. Soon, he arrived at the courtyard of a private house. He could see that there were many people in military uniforms gathered in the courtyard playing cards.
When Li Yunfei walked in, the soldiers who were playing cards stood up one by one. A major in disheveled clothes walked over. He naturally recognized Xu Jinxi and did not take him seriously. When he saw that Li Yunfei was also a major, he said arrogantly,"Who are you guys!"
Li Yunfei didn't even bother to look at these people. With a wave of his hand, the guards behind Zhao Dezhu pounced on these ruffians like wolves and tigers. The major in front was about to pull out his pistol when he saw this, but he was directly kicked away by Zhao Dezhu. He crashed into the door of the courtyard and smashed it open.
Inside the door was a small hall. On the slightly old table, there were a few exquisite dishes. In the middle was a fat middle-aged man wearing a lieutenant colonel's military uniform. The buttons on his shirt were completely unbuttoned. He was hugging a woman who was dressed up beautifully. He was drunk and had fun.
The door was knocked open, and the man was so frightened that he spilled the glass of wine in his hand. Amidst the woman's scream, the slightly drunk Wang Caihou did not have time to react before the guards rushed in and pressed him to the ground.
"Tie them up and bring them back to the camp.”Li Yunfei ordered expressionlessly.
Zhao Dezhu's men did not hold back at all. They found hemp ropes from the courtyard and tied up everyone's hands.
" Who the f * ck are you…" Wang Caihou shouted, but before he could say anything, his mouth was covered by a rag. Ba.
As he set off on his return journey, the people of Zhouzhuang pointed at him. Li Yunfei did not say a word, and only Xu Jinxi, who was beside him, had a worried look on his face.
This new officer was too impulsive, and it would be difficult to end this.
Not long after, they arrived at the camp. The people in the camp gathered all of a sudden.
Seeing the tied up Wang Caihou, the soldiers were at a loss.
Soon, it alerted seven or eight officers at the base. When they saw Wang Caihou tied up and the people around him, some of them had already reached for their pistols.
Li Yunfei saw all of this.
"I am the new regiment commander of the 337th Regiment. I have orders from the Ministry of National Defense to handle all matters of the 337th Regiment.”Li Yunfei shouted at the hundreds of soldiers in the camp.
Most of the soldiers in the camp were from the 2nd Battalion. There were also other troops from the Regiment Headquarters. There were about 500 to 600 people in total.
Other than the soldiers of the 2nd Battalion who were at a loss, the other soldiers lined up enthusiastically.
Li Yunfei did not care about the ruffians of the Second Battalion. He shouted at the other personnel who had already lined up,"According to the military discipline of our country, those who escape from battle, deceive their superiors and subordinates, and oppress the people should be punished.”
Many soldiers in the formation shouted at the same time,"Death penalty."
Wang Caihou, who had been tied up, had long sobered up. Hearing this, he immediately struggled and looked at the people of the Second Battalion in the school field, especially the officers of the Second Battalion.
However, Zhao Dezhu had already raised his arm and put it down heavily. The soldiers of the guard platoon fired one after another. The gunshots shocked everyone present. Zhao Dezhu had a look of disbelief on his face before he died.
The officers of the 2nd Battalion were also stunned.
