Seeing Lu Xianping's eyes shining when he was holding the old Japanese soldier's uniform and saber, and then looking at the soldiers next to him who were exhausted and now ecstatic, the old man's heart immediately thumped, and he felt bad.
As the saying goes, a soldier is like a comb, and a bandit is like a grate. It means that soldiers these days are even more ruthless than bandits when it comes to plundering money, and you have no place to complain.
The old man has lived for most of his life, and of course he understands this truth. What he is most afraid of now is that big-headed soldiers like Lu Xianping will kill his grandfather and grandson for the bounty of these devils. Then he really deserves to be called to heaven and earth.
Not working.
He wanted to escape, but as soon as the idea came up, looking at the dozens of soldiers in the darkness around him, the old man gave up the idea and wanted to escape from the door of dozens of heavily armed soldiers. Unless both his grandfather and grandson could fly.
Just fine.
The old man knelt on the ground with a bang, and kowtowed to Lu Xianping without saying a word, "Master... Master... please forgive me, old man, I am just a hunter at the foot of the mountain, and I have never done anything harmful to nature."
Things.
These devils all came here by themselves. Old man, I just put a little drug in their food. I thought that after they were released, I would go to Commander Gao to get some reward. Now that the military masters are here, I don’t want these rewards, old man.
Well, this is just money for running errands for the military masters. I beg you military masters to spare the lives of the old man and his grandson."
Looking at the old man kowtowing repeatedly, Lu Xianping was startled for a moment, and then immediately understood the old man's worry. The old man was afraid that they would kill someone and silence him.
In fact, it's not surprising that the old man thought too much. According to the regulations set by Gao Hongming, after the civilians killed the Japs, they could receive the reward with the help of the Lotus Terrace Militia of the Human Head Road. Just by virtue of the Japs lying on the ground, inside
A lieutenant general, a colonel, and more than a dozen soldiers, the bounty alone is enough to turn an ordinary family into a rich man in no time. Who can resist such a temptation?
To be honest, after this idea flashed across Lu Xianping's mind, his heart did waver for a moment, but he was immediately extinguished.
Although the bounty is good, it must also have a life flower.
As the saying goes, if a second person knows a secret, it is no longer a secret. What's more, there are more than thirty soldiers here. Only if you are crazy would you expect everyone to keep it a secret for you. Once such a thing happens,
Leaking secrets awaits him, which is a serious crime of beheading. Gao Hongming has always been ruthless towards this kind of thing. He really thinks that the Military Police and the Military Justice Department are just decorations. Those things are set up specifically to deal with internal affairs.
More importantly, the Liantai Vigilante Group's treatment is not low, and there is no need for him to embark on the road of no return for the sake of immediate interests.
In general, the risks are too high and the returns are too small, making it uneconomical.
Thinking of this, Lu Xianping took two steps forward and pulled the old man up, "I asked you, old man, what are you doing? You really thought we would covet your reward of three melons and two dates.
Don't worry, Senior Officer Gao can't tolerate sand in his eyes. If anyone dares to do something like killing a good person and taking credit, the Military Justice Department and the Gendarmerie will be the first to spare us, and they will be shot.
Besides, take a look at the stars on my shoulders... Just with this, I can get a military salary of one hundred and twenty dollars a year. Do I deserve to be greedy for your money? Okay, you two hurry up, if
If others see it, they will think that we have bullied you."
This is the benefit of Gao Hongming's insistence on paying high salaries to the troops. Although high salaries cannot eliminate corruption, they can curb people's greed to the greatest extent.
When the cost of doing evil is much higher than the cost of obeying the law, no matter how cruel a person wants to do evil, he has to think carefully about whether it is worth it.
After seeing what Lu Xianping said, the old man felt relieved a little and stood up again with the help of his granddaughter.
Just as the grandfather and grandson stood up, there was another noise outside. It turned out that the large troops behind them were also coming one after another...
It was already noon the next day when Gao Hongming saw Torajiro Iwai being escorted back. The shock in his heart was indescribable, let alone Commander Liu and Political Commissar Heping beside him.
The three of them never expected that a dignified division commander would be taken prisoner like this, and in such a humiliating way.
He looked at Torajiro Iwai who was tied up in front of him, and then at the trembling old man who was being supported by his granddaughter. He couldn't help laughing and jokingly said: "Old man, despite your age, you are really lucky.
It’s hard to say that even such a big leak can be picked up by you. I can only say that God can’t bear to see you become poor.”
The old man smiled so hard that the wrinkles on his face spread out, "It's all thanks to your great blessing, Sir Gao, that I have the courage to knock on the devils' sap. Otherwise, even if I have ten courages, I wouldn't dare to deal with these things."
The devils are taking action."
"Hahaha……"
Gao Hongming smiled happily and waved his hands. Then four soldiers came over carrying two boxes and placed them on the ground. When the boxes landed, they made a muffled sound.
"Old man, our Liantai militia keeps what we say. According to our regulations, the silver reward for a Japanese lieutenant general is four thousand yuan, and for a colonel is one thousand yuan. In addition, there are many Japanese soldiers. What will you do this time?
The total reward received was 5,600 yuan.
Now these oceans are all yours, you can take some of them yourself."
After saying that, the soldier next to him opened both boxes. For a while, the white ocean under the sunlight almost dazzled everyone's eyes.
The old man swallowed, looked at the ocean on the ground, then at Gao Hongming standing in front of him, and then knelt down again with a pop.
Yingzi behind him quickly knelt down after seeing her grandfather's actions.
"Sir Gao...I don't want any reward for you, old man. I just want you to give me a decision. Please agree to this."
"Hey, hey...old man, what are you doing? Get up quickly!"
Gao Hongming was a little confused by the sudden arrival of the grandfather and grandson. He quickly motioned to Dabao on the side to help the old man up.
After Dabao lifted the old man up like a chicken, the old man cried and said: "Sir Gao, I am already seventy-two years old. How many more years can I live? Why do I need so much ocean?"
use?
It's just that I'm an unlucky old man. My son and daughter-in-law passed away early, leaving me with only one granddaughter. I'm afraid that no one will take care of my granddaughter after I leave, so I'm bold enough to ask you to find a granddaughter for me.
It's a marriage, and I hope you will show mercy and fulfill the old man's wish."
"Hey……"
The old man's request was beyond everyone's expectations.
Gao Hongming thought for a moment and asked with a smile: "Old man, do you have a crush on someone from our Liantai Militia?"
"That's him!" The old man pointed without hesitation to a person next to him who he thought had been silent...
