"Okay, you don't need to say anything." Xu Shijiu said, "You don't think about it. Now the entire 19th Detachment is in panic. How much combat power can the troops have? You will take the troops to chase Niu Sigen. Maybe halfway through the way, there will be few people left in your two regiments. Okay, let's quickly pay the condemnation fee to the brothers who want to go home."

Li Shuangqin and Lu Jian Gang were speechless. The news that the little Japanese forced Longkou to borrow the officers and soldiers to go home with their family members had already spread. As Xu Shijiu said, the entire 19th Detachment was in panic. Now that they are taking the troops out, they really can't guarantee that most of them can be brought back to Qinglongzhai.

"The people's hearts are dispersed, and the team is not easy to lead." Xu Shijiu shook his head and turned around and left.

Li Shuangqin and Lu Jiangang watched Xu Shijiu disappear on the mountain road. The two of them suddenly realized that Xu Shijiu's back seemed to be a little hunched, and their figure was no longer as tall as before.

Lu Jianang squatted on the ground with his hands in his arms and said, "The 19th Detachment really disbanded like this? I can't figure it out."

"What else can I do if I don't part? Is it interesting to tie my brothers to the mountain?" Li Shuangqian took out the tobacco pipe, lit it and took a few sips, and then said, "It's no big deal. I've been here when I was so difficult. Now it's not good, it's better than the situation we had when we first arrived at Longkou?"

Yanjia Town, independent mixed 14th Brigade Headquarters.

"So, the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in southern Anhui has begun to collapse?" Tengdo Takayoshi put down the brush in his hand and asked Haneda with a smile.

Haneda replied: "Your Excellency General, it's not just a disintegration? There is a Chinese saying that "The tree falls and the money is scattered. Now the situation of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in southern Anhui is that the tree falls and the money is scattered. Xu Shijiu clearly knew that this was your plan, but he had no choice but to watch the troops collapse."

"This is called a conspiracy, dignified, born with the situation, and with the situation, there is no trace to follow, and it cannot be broken." Fujido Takayoshi smiled coldly and said, "Unless Xu Shijiu can win back the hearts of the people, he will only be passive forever."

Haneda said again: "Genius General, there is also good news. More than 1,000 people from the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army Regiment, led by the regiment commander Niu Sigen, have surrendered to the Longkou Security Brigade of the Imperial Army."

"Six oxen?" Fujido Takayoi asked thoughtfully, "Do you know this person?"

Haneda said: "I have reviewed the records of the special high school class. Niu Sigen was the patrol captain of Longkou County of the Chinese government. After the Imperial Army occupied Longkou, he surrendered to the Imperial Army. However, not long after, Xu Shijiu led the 19th Detachment to recapture Longkou County, and Niu Sigen surrendered to the southern Anhui Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army. This is a capricious person and is not trustworthy."

"So, this Niu Sigen is really a repetitive villain, then I'm relieved." Fujido Takae said, "

Haneda said strangely: "Genius, why are Niu Sigen a recurring villain, but you are relieved?

"Isn't this a simple principle?" Fujido Takae said, "If Niu Sigen is a person who is determined and trustworthy, how could he easily turn against the water? In this way, I must doubt whether his rebellion has an ulterior motive, but if Niu Sigen is a capricious person, then all this is reasonable."

Haneda said: "God General, aren't you afraid that the four bulls will repeat again?"

"Not afraid." Fujido Takayoshi waved his hand and said calmly, "Anyone who is like Niu Sigen is a person who forgets his righteousness when he sees profit. Therefore, as long as the Imperial Army still controls Longkou, as long as the public security situation in Longkou does not recur, as long as the Imperial Army can give him enough benefits, he will always be our most loyal watchdog."

Haneda said: "Your Excellency General, I admire you for your humble duties."

Takayo Fujido waved his hand and said, "However, such a repetitive villain cannot be honest. The necessary guards are still needed. The Longkou Security Brigade of the Imperial Army must be strengthened."

Haneda thoughtfully, "God-Empress, Hu Yi suddenly had an idea."

"Is that true?" Fujido Takae smiled, "What do Haneda Sang have to say? You might as well tell me."

Haneda said: "Your Excellency General just said that such a repetitive villain like Niu Sigen is not worthy of heart-to-heart talk. In fact, Yan Sanquan is also not trustworthy. Just now, Yan Sanquan found me, and the words implicitly threatened, asking me to expand the Longkou Security Brigade of the Imperial Army into a security division. He also said that if he did not do so, he would not be able to appease his subordinates."

"What, expanding the Royal Association Army's Dragon Guard Brigade into a division? This is definitely not possible." Fujido Takae said.

When the security situation in Longkou County improves, the 14th Independent Mixed Brigade should leave. At that time, the Japanese troops stationed in Longkou County will be reduced to a brigade, and they are not combat troops, but temporary recruitment of ronin and expatriates. If they rely solely on such a military police force, they will control a security division of the Imperial Army. The risk is too great.

"Of course this is not possible." Haneda also said, "I flatly rejected Yan Sanquan's threat."

Takayo Fujido nodded and asked again, "So, what are you trying to say?"

Haneda said: "God General, what I want to say is that even if the Royal Army Dragonkou Security Brigade is not expanded into division, it is too difficult to control it firmly with just one gendarmerie. In view of this, why don't we support another mountain within the Royal Army Dragonkou Security Brigade, causing the two forces to check and balance each other. In this way, the Imperial Army can occupy a mediation position and it will be much easier to control it."

"Yo Xi." Fujido Takayoi said happily, "Hanida, I feel very pleased that you can think like this. In this way, even if the 14th Brigade in the future will leave Longkou, I believe that the public security situation in Longkou will definitely not be repeated."

"Haida." Haneda suddenly stood up and said, "It depends on the cultivation of the General."

"Haha, sit down." Fujido Takae smiled, "Hanida, let's play in one game."

Heilongzhai, the headquarters of the 19th Detachment.

Xu Shijiu's gloomy eyes slowly flew over Gao Shenxing, Li Zihan, Li Shuangqin and several senior officers of Lu Jian Gang's gang, and finally said: "Do you have any objections to reduce the 19th Detachment into a regiment?"

It has to be admitted that the trump card used by the old Japanese devil, Tengdo Gaoying, is indeed powerful. His relatives are facing the danger of life and death. Almost no one can calm down. The officers and soldiers of the 19th Detachment are of course no exception. In order to save people, most of the Longkouji officers and soldiers with family members chose to leave the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in southern Anhui.

Xu Shijiu did not blame them, nor did he make things difficult for them, but let them go very readily.

After this non-combat "reduction of personnel", the 19th Detachment of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in Southern Anhui reduced its troops from more than 4,000 to less than 2,000, which was almost one regiment of troops.

Gao Shenxing said: "What can we do if we don't shrink the number of troops?"

Li Zihan said: "Old Gao is right, he is just a group of people, but he insists on supporting the detachment. It seems unnecessary."

Li Shuangqiang said: "Son of the Turtle, I have no objection. As long as I can fight against Japan, fight against Japan, and be the regiment commander or battalion commander, is there a difference?"

Xu Shijiu finally looked at Lu Jian Gang and asked, "Old Lu, where are you?"

Lu Jiangang lowered his head and said in a muffled voice: "I have no objection, either."

"Okay, the reduction is decided." Xu Shijiu said, "The L regiment was reduced to the L battalion, the 3rd regiment was reduced to the battalion, the 4th regiment and the Guard Battalion were reduced to the 3rd battalion, and the number of the 5th battalion remained unchanged. As for officers at all levels, battalion commanders were reduced to the company commander, company commanders were reduced to the platoon leader, platoon leader was reduced to the squad leader, and squad leader was reduced to the top corps."

Gao Shenxing and the three "battalion commanders" nodded at the same time.

Xu Shijiu said again: "You go back and rectify the troops well. The first thing you need to solve is the problem of ideological problems. After the brothers' thoughts are inevitably confused. If you don't find a way to unify your thoughts, it will inevitably affect the subsequent combat operations. Fujido Gaoying, an old devil, is not easy to mess with, and he will inevitably have subsequent actions."
