After interrogating most of the water bandits, Deng Chenggong specially arranged special forces to invite Fan Jianglong's wife and two children. Seeing that the other party was scared and trembled all over, Deng Chenggong also felt that he was like this, and he might have really scared the other party. Originally, he wanted to talk to Mrs. Lin alone, but when he saw that the other party held the child and refused to let go, he seemed to be afraid that he would hurt her two children. In the end, Deng Chenggong asked the special forces to go to the door to keep watch and kept the mother and son alone.

After adjusting his expression slightly, Deng Chenggong said politely: "Mrs. Lin, I am Deng Chenggong, the commander of the North China Minhou Column. I am very sorry for the shock that the action tonight brought to you, mother and son. I believe you also know what kind of business Mr. Lin is engaged in in this water village. As a militia who protects the country and protects the people, it is reasonable to encircle them. I hope Mrs. Lin can understand this point."

Mrs. Lin, who seemed to be from a certain background, said a little calmly when she saw Deng Chenggong speak so politely: "Commander Deng is polite. I know what Lao Lin does is a bit unreasonable. Sooner or later, there will be such a day. But I hope the commander can give up Lao Lin. I promise that our family will never do such things from now on, and find a countryside to live the rest of their lives in a simple way. Xiuying begs the commander!"

Seeing the mother and son kneeling in front of him together, Deng Chenggong was shocked when facing this situation for the first time and quickly helped him up and said, "Mrs. Lin, what are you doing? Get up quickly! Although I am the commander of the column, I don't have the right to let go of an important person like Mr. Lin easily. The reason why I invited you is mainly to ask you whether he told you about Mr. Lin's previous life experience. Also, I think Mrs. Lin should have been born in a scholarly family, so why did she fall to this point and follow Mr. Lin, the leader of the water village?"

Seeing Deng Chenggong inquiring about Lin Sihai's situation, Mrs. Lin thought about it and said with tears: "To be honest with the commander, my old Lin was forced to do this kind of robbery. Since he became the boss, the water bandits in the village have been much more restrained than before. In fact, why did I finally choose to marry him? It was mainly because I felt that he was honest. In addition, I snatched him from my house than the previous boss. He finally chose to kill the other party for me and finally sent me home. As a result, my family learned that I had been robbed of this water village for more than ten days and had already told the public that I died of sudden illness. When I was homeless, I returned to the water village with him again. Finally, I felt that he was sincere to me and willingly married him.

As for Lao Lin's life experience, although he mentioned it to me very little, when he was chatting with him, he only knew that he was from Northeast China, and he had a pair of parents and a sister in his family. Later, the Japanese invaded Hei Province, and his sister was insulted by the Japanese. In order to protect his daughter, his parents were also picked up and killed by those crazy Japanese devils at home. When he returned home from the army, he saw the scene of all his family being killed. In awe, he led a few brothers to set up the Japanese in a gunboat and bombed the Japanese in command not far from the river.

Because of this, he was also dismissed by Shangfeng and investigated and drove out of the army. In the end, he had no choice but to escort some merchants. For some reason, he was attracted by the master at that time and finally left him in the water camp as an instructor. I am not very clear about more things, but one thing I must say is that since Lao Lin became the master, the water bandits on the island have only robbed some passing merchant ships and have rarely gone ashore to loot the people. The commander can ask about this matter, but it is not that I intend to excuse Lao Lin. Therefore, I hope the commander can spare our Lao Lin's life in vain. Please!"

Seeing that the other party was about to kneel down again, Deng Chenggong hurriedly stopped him and said, "Okay, Mrs. Lin, I don't want to see the scene of kneeling down to people at any time. I will seriously consider what you say, but as for whether to let your husband go, I will wait until I discuss with others before giving you a reply. In short, I can tell you something, if Mr. Lin really hasn't done anything to hurt the people, then I can give him a chance.

If there is evidence that he has still hurt the people, then I can tell you that according to our policy, he must be punished. Of course, there is one thing you can rest assured. We don’t like to implement the policy of killing the company, so after the water village is cleared, I will arrange for people to take the three of you to live in our rear base, so your food, clothing, housing and transportation will not have any problems. Now you take your children down to rest first, and when there is news, I will ask Mr. Lin to meet you three. So you can rest assured, right?"

With Deng Chenggong's statement, Mrs. Lin seemed to feel relaxed. In addition, the two children were relatively young, and the youngest son also said to go to bed from time to time. Seeing this situation, Deng Chenggong quickly ended the conversation and asked her to take her two children to rest.

After someone arranged the three of them to live alone in a house in the water village, looking at the sky gradually getting brighter, Deng Chenggong lamented that this era was full of cruel reality. Everyone had different tragic situations. If Lin Sihai was not the leader of the water village, after learning about these situations, he would unceremoniously agree to let the other party go. If the other party was willing to join the militia column, he might be seriously injured. After all, there are not many iron-blooded soldiers who dare to attack the Japanese command center with a gunboat these days, let alone the navy's troops.

Putting the other party openly on a path of life will undoubtedly greatly reduce this action. Those people who are deeply poisoned by water bandits will not consider Lin Sihai's past at all. They only know one thing, that is, Lin Sihai is the leader of water bandits, and if he is to be shot, he will definitely be the first. Deng Chenggong, who has dealt with countless bandits, knows this kind of thing.

Then if you want to let the other party go, you undoubtedly hope to create an "accident". If the other party accidentally escapes and the people will see that the water camp has been picked, they will only think that this is just a temporary inattention of the militia brigade, and will not be so angry at the openly letting him go. This also means that Deng Chenggong wants to have a relatively safe "accidental escape" incident.

It was just that such talents were buried and lived in seclusion. Deng Chenggong, who had always felt that there were not many talents in his hands, undoubtedly felt a bit wasteful. What's more, this is an excellent soldier who has a deep hatred of the Japanese. If he couldn't use it for himself, wouldn't it be a waste?

Finally, Deng Chenggong came up with an idea, asking the special forces team members to find Lin Sihai, who was guarding alone, and chatted with the other party with a heart-warming relationship. Soon, he asked the special forces team members to send Lin Sihai to the room where Mrs. Lin and the other two lived. The special forces team in charge of guarding soon heard the two couples chatting in the room for a short time, and Mrs. Lin began to cry in a low voice.

When the next day it was bright, the fishermen fishing on the Baiyangdian Lake heard something that was somewhat unexpected and even unbelievable, that was, the bandits in the Little Shuibo Liangshan who were harming one side were taken down by soldiers sent by Xinxian militia.

The fishermen who learned the news were originally a little unbelievable, but when they saw a militia escorted by fifty-six fishing boats, heading towards the area near Liangshan, which they had never dared to approach before. Some brave fishermen also carried the boats and followed each other slowly towards the waters. When they saw that the sentries on the arrow tower had been replaced with the green uniforms of the militia regiment, the fishermen cheered together. Even some fishermen who had been hurt by the water bandits shed tears of excitement.

As the boats drove out of the water camp, the water bandits who were arrogant in front of their fishermen were hunched and escorted out under the escort of live ammunition by the militia, and they tried their best to applause with the fishermen watching the fun. When they heard again, the militia regiment would conduct public trials at Baiyangdian Wharf in three days, hoping that the people could report the people who had hurt them at any time. At that time, the militia regiment would punish those bandits who had hurt them. After the circumstances were serious, even directly shot, the people who watched the fun didn't bother to watch the fun and quickly carried the fishing boats back to their respective villages to try to pass the good news back to the village. At that time, I believe that the people in the village who hated the water bandits would be ecstatic to hear the news.

When the last and most spacious fishing boat escorted the money found from the water village and walked out of the water village with Lin Sihai, Deng successfully arranged for this water village to be a battalion commander to lead three militias to be responsible for defense. Because the location of this water village is good, it is still good to temporarily use it as a camp for the water militia brigade.

Most of the militias who stayed and garrisoned were children of fishermen, and rowing and launching the water was easy for them. The most important thing was that Deng Chenggong also gave them a temporary task, which was to escort the nearby fishermen and passing fleets to prevent other water bandits from looting on this waterway. This was also an opportunity to launch a militia column from another channel, so Deng Chenggong would not miss it easily.

Just when everyone thought the trip was completed, when the big ship advanced into a relatively narrow river channel, the water camp leader who was originally squatting on the ground suddenly broke free from the guards' soldiers, jumped down into the lake and disappeared quickly. The militia responsible for the defense immediately fired, but after seeing a bloody water emerge from the bottom of a lake, they sent people down but could not find Lin Sihai's body.

Until the group went through the nearby waters, they still could not find any traces of Lin Sihai. While angry, Deng Chenggong issued a warning decision to the two militias responsible for guarding on the spot, and asked a militia team that was moving forward to stay and continue patrolling. Once Lin Sihai's traces were discovered, they could be shot without asking for instructions. Then he led the team away from the lake in Baiyangdian and returned to the militia regiment station.

Not long after Deng Chenggong left, a somewhat depressing gunshot suddenly came from a reed bush not far from the lake. When the nearby militia patrol fleet arrived, they only saw a pile of blood and a string of footprints on the ground, and no other discoveries were found. Next, the militia team checked all the rivers of all sizes nearby, and finally had no choice but to report to the militia headquarters to the militia headquarters without finding Lin Sihai's traces.

In order to get Lin Sihai away, at the public trial meeting three days later, Deng Chenggong, as the commander of the column, specifically apologized to the people present. At the same time, he said that the militia column would mobilize all forces to continue to chase Lin Sihai, the leader of the water camp. The people were naturally happy about Deng Chenggong's statement. At the same time, they also felt that although the commander of the column Deng Chenggong was not very old, he was very sincere to the people, and thus his attitude towards the militia group naturally changed drastically.
