The crescent moon hung quietly on the earth in the black night, and there was silence all around.
"Pah hook..."
A crisp gunshot was heard in the distance, and the sound of the gunshot was particularly clear in the silent night.
Liu Yi and the monkey stepped on the muddy and moist ground with one foot high and one foot low. At this moment, they were covered in dust, just like two mud monkeys. No worries, they were separated from the army for a day and a night.
They were already very tired. Now they were tired and hungry, but they were surrounded by wilderness and there was nothing they could do even if they wanted to find someone to beg for something to eat.
The monkey, who was carrying an MP38 submachine gun, was breathing heavily like the sound of a windmill turning, and asked in a low voice: "Da Liu, do you have anything to eat?"
Liu Yi rolled his eyes at him weakly and said angrily: "You don't know if I have anything to eat? Didn't the last biscuit fall into your stomach?"
"Hehe..." Monkey touched his head in embarrassment and said with a shy face, "I can't do anything about this. Aren't you too hungry?"
Although Monkey is thin and small, he has a huge appetite. Everyone knows this on weekdays. Most of the dry food the two of them carried along the way fell into his stomach.
Liu Yi had no choice but to say helplessly: "You are not big, but you have a big appetite. I really don't know where all the food you eat on weekdays has gone?"
The monkey also knew what was wrong with him, so he just smiled and said, "I can't help it, I'm born with it, and I don't want it to be like this."
"Okay, stop talking and continue on your way. The gunfire coming from the southeast just now was the sound of the Japanese 38 Dagai. It might be the remaining Japanese troops. Be careful."
"Don't worry!" Monkey patted his chest, "I'm not as good as you in terms of shooting skills. But when it comes to eyesight, I won't lose to anyone."
Liu Yi nodded: "That's good, let's go!" The two cheered up and continued to move forward.
After walking for about twenty minutes, they found a group of firelight in front of them. Under the light of the fire, they could faintly see the outline of a village, and there seemed to be a cry and a noise.
Seeing the burning village from a distance, Liu Yi's face immediately became serious, with a hint of eyes in his tone: "Monkey, be on guard, let's go over and take a look!" After saying that, he walked forward quickly with the rifle in his hand.
Trotted over.
"yes!"
Monkey usually talks a lot. But he is not a person who doesn't understand the seriousness. When he saw the burning village in the distance, he knew that something must happen ahead. After Liu Yi stopped talking, he quickly responded and took off the MP38 from his shoulder.
, followed Liu Yi and ran over...
Yorio Asano felt that he was very unlucky, and not just unlucky. As a fresh and hot corporal who had just been assigned to the 18th Division. And he was a corporal who had never attended a sergeant school. He should be full of excitement.
Emotional, but Asano Yoshio did not feel this emotion at all. It was not because Asano had any objections to the emperor or the Japanese government, but because this was the second time that Asano had enlisted in the army.
Since the Meiji Restoration, Japan's reserve system has been very complete. Every citizen must respond to the country's call for military service. Of course, those scientific and technological talents are exceptions. Asano, who was born as a farmer, has never read any books. Naturally, he serves in the military as cannon fodder.
the best candidate.
Asano began his military service in 1934 in the 9th Division, also known as the Kanazawa Division, and the 18th Division are considered to be twins within the Army. Since 1937, Asano has
The Ninth Division where he belonged was constantly fighting tough battles in China. Asano was very lucky. He fought in China for more than a year without ever being injured. It was not until last year that he returned to his hometown after completing his military service with the rank of private or above.
He married his fiancée Zhizi, who had been waiting for him at home for several years, and lived a life of men farming and women weaving.
But this kind of day did not last long, and soon a letter from the military headquarters came to his home. The light green envelope contained a letter full of gunpowder. The content of the letter was very simple. Because of the great Japanese
The Imperial Army continues to expand, and there is a serious shortage of experienced grassroots non-commissioned officers in the army. Therefore, the military decided to re-recruit Yoshio Asano into the army, and this time he served in the 46th Regiment of the 18th Division. In order to compensate for his
When he enlisted in the army for the second time, the military decided to upgrade his rank to one level with immediate effect, which meant that from the moment he received the letter, Asano was already a corporal.
After receiving the letter, Asano had no choice but to bid farewell to his newlywed and pregnant wife, packed his backpack and got on the boat to cross the ocean again and came to the Eighteenth Division. It must be said that the married man and the unmarried man had no choice but to say goodbye.
Married men are different. At this time, what Qian Zhiye is thinking about is not how to achieve military exploits and make a small fortune. What he wants to do most at this moment is to return home and be by his wife's side.
But this wish is unlikely to come true in the short term, because in Japan, soldiers serve in the military for four years. It is estimated that by the time he returns home after completing his second military service, his children will already be running around.
It's okay to feel unhappy, but the troops still lost the battle, which further aggravated Asano's fear and uneasiness. Asano, who is twenty-seven years old this year, is no longer like those brainless young people of eighteen or nineteen.
He is passionate about war. After experiencing so many wars and defeats these days, Asano is tired of these days.
Just yesterday, the 18th Division was defeated. This Kurume Division, known as one of the double walls, finally couldn't hold on anymore and withdrew from Jiangmen in dejection under the heavy artillery strikes and aircraft bombings of the 300 Chinese Army.
Although the division commander Saito Risaburo led the soldiers to resist with all their strength in order to retreat in an orderly manner, the soldiers of the 18th Division also died in batches as the Chinese heavy artillery shells were bombarded one after another.
Finally, the 18th Division, known for its tenacity, finally retreated and attacked. Asano followed a group of soldiers and retreated towards Foshan and Guangzhou. In just one day and one night, the number of Asano's squadron also increased from five to five.
The number of people reduced from more than ten to less than twenty, and the others either got separated or became Chinese people who snatched the souls of the dead.
Tonight, the Japanese troops who had been running for a whole day and night came to a village. The tired and hungry Japanese troops rushed into the village and began a crazy sweep. They used bayonets to drive out all the more than 100 men, women, and children in the village.
, and ordered several women to get them food, otherwise they would kill people.
But there is really no delicious food these days, so the villagers have no choice but to collect some whole grains from each household and make some whole grain pancakes. Fortunately, Japanese people are not picky about food. Although the food is a bit unpalatable, it is still a good thing after a short day.
Even though they didn't eat anything, they still ate deliciously.
As the saying goes, a person who is full and warm will think of lust, and this is true at all. Just after filling their stomachs, several soldiers with excessive male hormone secretion wanted to have some fun. They dragged out several young women from the crowd, thinking
He wanted to rape them, but he didn't expect that these women were very violent. If they didn't cooperate, they just let it go. Instead, they started fighting with the Japanese soldiers on the spot. During the fight, one of the soldiers got excited and shot at a woman.
One shot killed the woman.
After killing the woman, the soldier who fired the shot did not gain anything, so he was slapped several times by Asano who was in a bad mood. Asano did this not because he sympathized with these women and wanted to fight for their injustice, but because he was in a bad mood.
It was because Asano was afraid that the sound of gunfire would attract the Chinese troops behind him. He didn't need a lot of people. As long as one platoon came, they would all be finished.
"Baga, you idiot, don't you know that shooting now will attract the Chinese?"
Although the soldier who received several slaps did not dare to fight back, he still said a little unconvinced: "Sir, it is already midnight, no matter how powerful the Chinese are, they will not chase them at this time!"
"Baga, you idiot!" Asano was almost stunned by this idiot, raised his arm and slapped him several times.
After giving the reckless soldier two slaps, Asano walked up to the squad leader with the highest rank in the team and suggested: "Second Lieutenant Tatsuo Yamazaki, that idiot's gunshot just now might have alerted the Chinese people.
Let’s leave quickly.”
Yamazaki Tatsuo looked at the sky, then at the hundreds of people huddled together in front of him, frowned and said: "Asano-kun, it doesn't matter if we leave, but what will happen to these Chinese people? If we kill them all, we will definitely open fire."
Gun, what if it attracts the pursuers from behind?"
"Hmm... This is a problem." Asano touched his chin with his hand, then a fierce light flashed in his eyes, and he said ferociously: "Sir, you can't shoot, but we still have bayonets. There are only more than a hundred Chinese people.
We have more than 20 imperial warriors, why can't we still eliminate more than 100 Chinese people?"
Yamazaki Tatsuo stared at Asano Yorio for a while before sighing: "Asano-kun, I know you feel uncomfortable about your second military service, but is it necessary to vent your anger in this way?"
Asano smiled coldly: "Sir, I promised my wife that I must return to Japan alive. For this goal, let alone killing more than a hundred Chinese people, I don't care even if I kill all the Chinese people. If
If we leave these Chinese people alive, they will definitely expose our whereabouts to the Chinese pursuing troops behind us, so you should know better than me what to do."
As a subordinate, it was undoubtedly very impolite for Yorio Asano to speak to his superior like this, but as a non-commissioned officer who was serving for the second time, both parties felt that it was so natural for him to say these words.
Yamazaki Tatsuo thought for a while, nodded and said: "Okay, tell all the soldiers to fix their bayonets and get rid of all these Chinese people!"
"Hai!"
Asano Yorio, who had received permission from his superiors, gave a grim smile and walked towards the Chinese people in front with a rifle with a bayonet in his hand...
