Chapter 213: Unbelievable
The next morning, Wang Yu and others finally arrived at Shilipu.
The sun rises, and a bright morning glow is reflected on everyone's face, warm and dispelling a little bit of the coldness of the night.
Wang Yu chuckled at his hands, and the white breath spread through his fingers into the cold air.
He pressed his hands towards Zhang Dabiao and others behind him, indicating that he would not make any noise. Then he leaned over, walked forward a few steps, lay on a dirt ridge, and observed the village below from a high place.
Seeing this, Zhang Dabiao also touched it up, observed the village below, and said:
"Are we right here? We passed three villages along the way and found that they were not."
Wang Yu did not answer immediately, but looked at the sun that had just jumped out of the sky, looked at the direction he seemed, identified the direction before speaking:
"According to the instructions of the fellow villager, it should be correct!"
After saying that, he turned around and looked at the village in front of him, always feeling something was wrong.
The village is located in a depression, backed by a loess high slope, which is extremely leeward.
Because the depression is extremely open and flat, the houses in the village are also built in a row, row by row, and are particularly neat.
Because the weather is cold and not during the busy farming season, although the sun is rising, there are still no signs of villagers moving in the village, which is normal.
"Do you want to send someone down to investigate?" Zhang Dabiao asked.
Wang Yu frowned, shook his head, then nodded again, and said:
"Send two people first to check the surroundings of the village!"
Zhang Dabiao nodded, then gestured several times at the back, and then two soldiers divided into two groups and went to investigate around the village.
Looking at the village in front of him, although Wang Yu couldn't tell whether this village was the Shilipu in Watanabe's mouth, his intuition told him that he was absolutely not wrong!
Wang Yu retreated from the earth ridge, retreated to the team, grabbed Watanabe who was tied up, and asked softly:
"Yamamoto Ichiki asked you to come here, how can you gather?"
After saying that, he took down the strip of cloth stuffed in Watanabe's mouth.
Although before leaving, Zhao Gang repeatedly reminded Wang Yu to keep in mind the discipline of the Eighth Route Army and not to abuse prisoners, he was careful to sail the ten thousand-year-old ship. Even if Watanabe had a leg, Wang Yu had to treat it carefully.
After all, the old Japanese devil, Watanabe, is the leader of the Japanese special forces team. Even if one of his legs is ruined, it is probably not difficult to knock down an Eighth Route Army soldier.
In order not to happen, Wang Yu had to tie the old Japanese man up and block his mouth.
Watanabe was pulled out of the cloth strip in his mouth, retching a few times, swallowing a few mouthfuls of saliva with difficulty, moistening his throat, and not responding to Wang Yu's words, as if he was extremely dissatisfied with the latter's behavior.
Wang Yu was not surprised, so he continued:
"Now we are not here, I have a hundred ways to deal with you!"
Looking at Wang Yu's cold eyes, Watanabe shivered, and didn't know if the coldest one was still scared, and replied in a low voice:
"I don't know. The captain only told me to come here to gather, and the rest did not say it!"
Looking at Watanabe's dejected look, Wang Yu thought this guy could not lie because he had hit Watanabe a lot along the way, and he had no idea about the purpose of meeting in Shilipu.
At this time, two Eighth Route Army soldiers who went to investigate ran back panting.
"Report to Captain Wang and Battalion Commander Zhang, no abnormalities were found around the village!"
Zhang Dabiao nodded, looked at Wang Yu and said:
"I think we're coming to the wrong place again!"
Wang Yu did not refute, but said:
"Leave two people to guard and the others go down to see the situation together!"
As he said that, Wang Yu untied the Type 56 automatic rifle behind him and touched it into the village.
The village was silent, as if everyone was sleeping soundly.
"wrong!"
Wang Yu finally realized something was wrong.
In such a big village, even if everyone is sleeping soundly, it is impossible for them to not even have the sound of chickens and dogs barking!
And the most important point is that there is no fireworks in the village!
You should know that it is cold and cold in the northwest of Shanxi at this moment, and the only way for villagers to keep the cold is to create a stove and light a kang.
But at this moment, the huge village could not smell the slightest of fireworks, which was absolutely abnormal!
"It's here!" Wang Yu held his breath and looked alert.
Zhang Dabiao and others also noticed the abnormality and had already loaded the bullets and were ready to fight.
Wang Yu came to a private house, opened the door, and found that the door was wide open and there was no one inside!
"broken!"
Wang Yu's heart sank to the bottom.
It seems that Watanabe is right. This is exactly where they gather, but Yamamoto Ichiki has arrived here, and everything can be seen from the empty houses.
Perhaps, the villagers in Shilipu have been killed!
Before he could think too much, Wang Yu ordered several Eighth Route Army soldiers to search every house continuously, eager to find something.
However, every house is the same, with no people and animals, as if it had disappeared out of thin air, leaving no trace!
While searching, they touched the village.
Suddenly, Wang Yu's pupils shrank and his eyes turned to the center of the village. A tall wooden stake stood in an open space similar to a square. There seemed to be a person tied to the wooden stake!
In an instant, Wang Yu was shocked and called everyone to surround the open space.
As he approached, he was surprised and happy, because the figure was Wei Dayong and Monk Wei!
However, Wei Dayong was tied to a wooden stake, his feet off the ground, his head drooped weakly, without any movement, and he didn't know how to live or die!
Wang Yu and Zhang Dabiao looked at each other and knew each other's thoughts and what to do next.
Instead of investigating Wei Dayong's situation as soon as possible, they quickly searched for every private house, for fear of fraud and being made into dumplings by the Japanese.
The Japanese tied Wei Dayong so obviously to the wooden stake, but disappeared, so it was difficult for people to associate it on the better side.
Later, Wang Yu found the missing villagers in three large tobacco-cured tobacco rooms, but no trace of the Japanese was found.
The Japanese tied Wei Dayong to a wooden stake and gathered all the villagers together, but left quietly. Is it possible?
Wang Yu didn't believe it, but that's the truth.
And there were no casualties among the villagers.
All this is too incredible and somewhat unreasonable.
These thoughts flashed through Wang Yu's mind like lightning. He didn't care about thinking about it and came to Wei Dayong first. He saw that the latter's face was pale and purple, like a dead person.
Wang Yu felt that he had explored the latter's breath and found that Wei Dayong's breathing had weakened to the extreme. He immediately untied the hemp rope that bound Wei Dayong and put it down.
Not only did Wei Dayong's limbs have cold, but his torso was no longer warm.
Wang Yu knew that this was the consequence of severe temperature loss.
Wei Dayong was already wearing a thin military uniform and was tied to the outdoors at minus 20 degrees Celsius. It is a miracle to be able to last until now.
