Qingshan Village is backed by a mountainous area.
The next morning.
Deputy platoon leader Zhao San, as usual, left the Fourth Regiment station and rushed to Qingshan Village to guide the militia team's training today.
Inside Qingshan Village.
Wang Mazi got up early, told Uncle Zhao that he was going to work in the fields, and then left with the hoe.
"This kid, Mazi, is really good at farming, he's so diligent!"
Uncle Zhao murmured in his heart, but didn't think much about it. Feeling that it wasn't time yet, he turned over and continued to sleep.
Wang Mazi, who was carrying a hoe, came out of the house and even greeted some villagers who also got up early on the village path.
"Mazi, why are you going to the ground so early?"
"Yes, Uncle Xu, it's quite early for you!"
When they entered the mountain road to the vegetable field, Wang Mazi threw the hoe in the woods, turned around and took advantage of the concealment of the mountains and forests, and detoured towards the back mountain.
Wang Mazi, who has been in contact with Zhao San several times, has determined the back mountain path that Zhao San takes every time he rushes to Qingshan Village.
He decided to intercept Zhao San halfway and control Zhao San, and then quickly instigated a rebellion against Zhao San, obtained important intelligence, and contacted Uchida Shinya, cooperated internally and externally, and wiped out the Fourth Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army in one fell swoop.
As for intercepting Zhao San in advance, one reason was to avoid alerting the villagers.
On the other hand, every time Deputy Platoon Leader Zhao rushes to the village to guide militia training, it takes a long time.
Intercepting him in advance to instigate rebellion, and subsequently contacting the Uchida Brigade to secretly dispatch troops, would not have alerted the Eighth Route Army.
It happened that the Eighth Route Army troops were extremely alert during this period, and their contact with Qingshan Village relied on Zhao San's single line.
Therefore, Wang Mazi has reason to believe that even if Zhao San disappears for a period of time.
Qingshan Village and the Eighth Route Army will not receive news in a short time.
Qingshan Village militiaman Zhang Erhu and others would only think that Deputy Platoon Leader Zhao was delayed by something today, so he came late, or he didn't come at all today.
...On the trail from the hinterland of the mountains to Qingshan Village.
Zhao San, deputy platoon leader of the third platoon of the 12th Company of the Fourth Independent Regiment, rushed to Qingshan Village as scheduled to guide the training of the militia team, and at the same time passed news between Qingshan Village and the headquarters of the Fourth Independent Regiment.
The mountains in the early morning are always a little cooler in this hot summer.
Deputy platoon leader Zhao even greedily took a few mouthfuls of fresh air in the mountains and forests.
Just as he was passing through a relatively narrow mountain path, he walked along the mountain path without realizing it. There was a sudden noise behind him, and before he could recover, a hard object was pressed against the back of his head.
"Don't move, if you dare to move I'll shoot you to death!"
Zhao San froze, and Wang Mazi successfully controlled Zhao San. He touched the gun on Zhao San's waist and searched him again to confirm that there was no weapon.
At this time, Zhao San turned his head and saw clearly the appearance of the uninvited guest behind him.
"Wang Mazi, it's you!!!"
"Baga!" Wang Mazi shouted.
Zhao San was startled and said with a horrified look on his face: "You, are you Japanese?"
As an elite spy, what Wang Mazi enjoys most is the enemies who are always beside him. They are paralyzed by his identity and acting skills, until the day when his identity is exposed, and the unbelievable look appears on their faces.
A look of despair.
"You Chinese are always so stupid. Don't you think it's too late to know my identity now?"
Wang Mazi's words were full of ridicule.
Zhao San's face was extremely ugly: "Little devil, what do you want to do?"
Wang Mazi said in a deep voice: "Deputy Platoon Leader Zhao, as far as I know, you were a member of the National Army before, right?"
"So what? Little devil, let me tell you, don't think that because I am a nationalist, I will betray the Eighth Route Army. Since you have caught me, you can kill or chop me as you please. Don't even think about the rest." Zhao
San replied firmly.
Wang Mazi smiled. He knew very well how serious these national army officers were.
"Deputy Platoon Leader Zhao, why bother? You will benefit greatly by cooperating with the Empire of Japan."
"What's the benefit? The benefit is to be a traitor and a dog for you?"
"Don't say that, Platoon Leader Zhao, you have many colleagues in our Empire of Japan who are living very well now.
Your national army is in conflict with the Eighth Route Army and the political parties. They are mortal enemies in the first place. Why should you sacrifice your life for the Eighth Route Army?
Maybe, if you can help us eliminate the Eighth Route Army in Zhongtiao Mountain, your bald chairman will hear about it and will issue an order to reward you after you return!"
"Hmph!" Zhao San snorted coldly, unmoved.
Wang Mazi said coldly: "Platoon Leader Zhao, I advise you that those who know the current affairs are heroes. You might as well guess your next fate."
Zhao San remained silent and did not reply.
Wang Mazi seemed to be asking himself a question and answered: "First, you must be a fearless person who sticks to information and sacrifices his life for charity."
"That's great. After I take you back, you will go through countless tortures set by the Japanese Empire, and then you will not be able to survive or die. I don't think many people can keep their secrets in front of these tortures."
."
"At the same time, we will let the news out, saying that you, Zhao San, the original platoon leader of the National Army, have long sold out all the secrets of the Eighth Route Army."
"The Eighth Route Army did not trust your national army in the first place. Do you think they would believe that it was true at that time?"
"No one will come to save you, and you will not lose the reputation of an anti-Japanese hero. Instead, you will be stigmatized as a traitor and traitor. You will only be tortured in a dark prison."
"Your family members in the Kuomintang-controlled area will not be treated well. How can the family members of a traitor expect to be taken care of?"
"You..."
Zhao San's fists were clenched, and his veins were tight. He was obviously touched by Wang Mazi's words.
Wang Mazi smiled even brighter. This was exactly what he liked to see, as he was well versed in human nature.
"Of course, you have a second way, to cooperate with the Empire of Japan to eliminate the Tuba Road in Zhongtiao Mountain."
"For those subordinates who are loyal to the Empire of Japan and have made great contributions, I, the Empire of Japan, will never treat them badly. I will recommend you to join the Imperial Alliance Army. Right now you are just a platoon leader. After joining the Imperial Alliance Army,
I promise you that I will at least give you the position of battalion commander."
"In addition, I can also promise to turn a blind eye. After you join the Imperial Alliance Army, you can also contact the national army in private. Just say that you are in Cao's camp and your heart is with Han, and you are going to save the country.
, so that your family members will also receive preferential treatment."
"Save your life, get a position, and bring honor and preferential treatment to your family. Apart from these, what else can a soldier pursue?"
"Deputy Platoon Leader Zhao, please tell me your choice now!"
Zhao San was silent again, but his clenched teeth caused his two cheeks to bulge high.
Wang Mazi knew that Zhao San was struggling in his heart at the moment, which actually meant that he was not far from success. He just needed to wait patiently.
"Well, there's no rush. Let's go, Deputy Platoon Commander Wang. I'll take you to Ji County first. Before arriving at the county seat, you have time to think about it slowly. As for whether to choose to go to prison and be tortured, or to choose a good bird from a good tree.
As for Qiu, it’s up to you to make your own decision.”
After that, Wang Mazi escorted Zhao San all the way, bypassing Qingshan Village, and rushed to the area agreed upon by Ji County and Captain Nobuya Uchida.
About two or three hours.
Wang Mazi pressed Zhao San and rushed to a mountain forest outside the gate of Ji County.
Here, the main force of the Uchida Battalion of the Kwantung Army suddenly appeared in front of us.
Uchida Nobuya had already learned from the scouts that Kurobe Masamura had captured an Eighth Route Army soldier and was heading here.
It seems the plan is going well.
Uchida Nobu also arrived with his guards and met Wang Mazi and Zhao San.
The shrewd Wang Mazi noticed that when he saw the Kwantung Army troops in front of him, there was unconcealable fear in Zhao San's eyes.
After seeing Nobuya Uchida, Wang Mazi immediately saluted: "Your Excellency, Captain!"
Uchida Nobu, who was also cunning and cunning, also nodded and looked at Zhao San aside: "Who is this?"
Wang Mazi replied: "Your Excellency, Captain, please allow me to introduce you to Mr. Zhao San, who is currently the deputy platoon leader of the Fourth Independent Regiment of Zhongtiao Mountain of the Eighth Route Army and the former platoon leader of the National Army."
"In addition, Mr. Zhao has promised to sincerely assist the Empire of Japan in annihilating the Zhongtiaoshan Eighth Route Army and join the Imperial Alliance Army."
Uchida Nobu also nodded and stretched out his right hand towards Zhao San: "Xinxi, Mr. Zhao, the Empire of Japan welcomes you!"
The battle-hardened Kwantung Army captain Uchida Nobuya carries a murderous aura and a half-smiling smile on his face, which brings a particularly intimidating effect.
Zhao San trembled for a moment and did not dare to hesitate. His expression was a little stiff. He also stretched out his hand and shook hands with Uchida Shinya.
"Xinxi, Mr. Zhao, you are indeed my sincere friend of the Japanese Empire. The war is urgent right now. After we win the battle and return to the city, I will help Mr. Zhao."
"Now please tell Mr. Zhao the specific details of the Eighth Route Army in Qingshan Village!"
Zhao San, who had struggled, sighed bitterly in his heart, nodded slowly, and said:
"Tai...Taijun, the Fourth Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army is stationed in the Qingshan Village area, headed by Han Feng. During this period, the Eighth Route Army troops are very vigilant. The station basically moves every two days. The specific place is very complicated. I only have
Only by personally guiding Taijun can we find it accurately."
Uchida Nobuya said: "Yoshi, please let Mr. Zhao lead the way. If we can destroy the Eighth Route Army this time, Mr. Zhao should be the first to take the credit. Don't worry, our Empire of Japan will not treat our friends badly."
"Hi!" Zhao San seemed to have entered the role and responded.
Ou Mazi's eyes collided with the captain Nobuya Uchida.
Under tacit understanding, Uchida Nobu nodded without any trace.
Wang Mazi turned around and left quietly. He will continue to lurk in Qingshan Village, waiting for the next opportunity. At the moment, his identity as a chess piece has not been exposed...
