Chapter 11
Zhao Wenbin nodded and looked at everything around him deeply again. Then, he waved his hand and said,"Let's go! To Jidong County."
.........
Jidong County. In this era, Jidong County was not much smaller than Jixi County. It was a county town with tens of thousands of people. However, the difference between Jidong County and Jixi County was that Jidong County was not located on a traffic artery like Jixi County.
The famous Zhongdong railway had a branch road that passed through Jixi County. This was also why the Japanese would still send a squadron to Jixi County when they were in a tight military situation, but they did not care about the neighboring Jidong County.
The puppet government that was established in Changchun in early March this year didn't really care about Jidong County. They just sent a county head and some officials here and then left.
Because this place was very poor, so poor that the puppet government thought that such a place was not worthy of their attention. They needed to pay attention to places like Fengtian and JiLin, not Jidong County, which was located on the border.
Now, Zhao Wenbin was standing outside Jidong County with more than 300 people. Looking at the county town whose city walls were somewhat dilapidated, Zhao Wenbin could not help but shake his head helplessly and say,"Old Man Li, are you sure that such a county can provide enough food for our troops?”
"Young Master, don't worry! Although Jidong County looked poorer than Jixi County, it had an advantage that Jixi County couldn't compare to. Unlike Jixi County, which was protected by mountains, Jidong County was mainly surrounded by plains.
There were many people who raised cattle and sheep here, and Xingkai Lake was a hundred miles away. Don't look at Xingkai Lake as an inner lake, but it is rich in fish and prawns.
Moreover, that is the dividing line between our country and the Slavs. There is an ice-free port on the other side of the sea. Even in winter, many people will go fishing in the sea. Every winter, someone would go there to buy a large number of fish and bring them back to the mainland.
It's almost winter in the northeast. As long as we have money, we can buy meat from those people. Moreover, because we are located in the plains, we are also rich in food. So, don't worry, young master, there is definitely enough food!”
Old Man Li patted his chest loudly.
Since that was the case, Zhao Wenbin heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. He looked at Old Man Li and smiled lightly."In that case, let's enter the city! Arrest all the officials of the fake government. We can also begin the next step!”
...............
Balda Yuqi was a native Manchu. After the puppet government in Ji Lin was established, he joined them and was appointed by the puppet government to serve as the county magistrate of Jidong County.
In fact, in his heart, he was very dissatisfied because he did not want to be a county magistrate in this barren place. He would rather stay in Changchun and enjoy life. As for not having money? This did not exist. His family was a hereditary aristocrat of the Qing Dynasty.
Ever since the Qing army entered the pass, his family had been nobles. They had been plundering wealth for hundreds of years in the pass. The wealth of his family could be said to be immeasurable. Although he had no choice but to retreat to the outside of the pass after the Manchu Dynasty was gone.
However, even after returning to the outside of the pass, his family had occupied a large area of fertile farmland, so even if he did not do anything, he would have endless money.
"Master, bad news! A group of lowlifes has entered the city!"
At this moment, a man with a braid ran in and looked at Balda Yuqi in panic. He had even forgotten to cheat.
"You damn slave, are you mourning? Master, I'm fine!"
Balda Yuqi looked at the person who ran in and cursed angrily.
"This servant deserves to die, I have startled Master. However, Master, a group of thugs suddenly entered the city. There were about two to three hundred people. Quickly go and take a look!"
"You stupid slave, if they come in, so be it. Why are you panicking? Wasn't it just an army sent by the Imperial Court? What are you afraid of? Alright, you may leave! If you disturb Old Master again, I'll throw you out.”
Balda Yuqi waved his hand and said impatiently. He was very unhappy with his slave making a fuss.
"Tsk! This servant will take his leave!"
The young man retreated in horror.
"This damned slave, he actually ruined this master's mood!”
Balda Yuqi cursed again and thought about what to play tonight. As for handling government affairs, that was no joke. He wouldn't care about that. As for government affairs, he would leave them to his advisor in the county government.
Moreover, there was nothing much to deal with right now because it was all trivial matters. The big matters or development problems were all the Japanese's concern. They were just decorations.
Balda Yuqi sat there and thought for a while. Then, he felt that he should follow the old rules and find a cool mushroom to have some fun. Just as he was about to get up, the servant ran in again.
After typing a thousand, he said in panic,"Master, bad news. Those soldiers have barged in!"
"What is it? They dared to barge into this lord's mansion, do they not want to live anymore?”
Barda Yuqi roared with rage.
"I think you don't want to live anymore!"
At this moment, a cold voice came from outside. Zhao Wenbin walked in with a group of people.
"Who are you? You dare to barge into my mansion?"
Balda Yuqi was stunned when he saw Zhao Wenbin. Then, he asked sternly. However, after he finished speaking, he looked at the clothes Zhao Wenbin was wearing and could not help but frown. This was because in his memory, it seemed that the imperial court's army did not wear such military uniforms. Even the Japanese did not wear such military uniforms.
"Northeast Anti-Japanese Army! Capture him and take control of this entire mansion!”
Zhao Wenbin waved his hand, and naturally, soldiers went down to take control of this mansion.
Two soldiers immediately tied Balda Yuqi up.
"How dare you! You actually dared to kidnap me. When the imperial court's army arrives, you will be reduced to ashes!”
Balda Yuqi pointed at Zhao Wenbin and shouted sternly.
"Alright! Stop dreaming. Do you still think that this is thirty years ago? Take him away."
Zhao Wenbin waved his hand impatiently.
Balda Yuqi was dismissed. Zhao Wenbin sat where Balda Yuqi had sat just now. After feeling it for a while, he said,"I didn't expect that Jidong County would be so easily taken down without any defense!”
"Haha! Young Master, this is only the first step. Now, he had to control these people well. As it is located at the border, as long as we control these people well, it will be difficult for the news of us occupying Jidong County to spread. And this period of time is also the best time for us to expand our military training!”
At this time, Old Man Li walked in and said to Zhao Wenbin with a smile.
Zhao Wenbin nodded. You're right, Old Li. Next, it's up to you to recruit soldiers. He hoped to replenish these troops as soon as possible. Twenty-three infantry companies. According to the formation I gave you, we will have thousands of people in our hands.”
