The Japanese soldiers held sharp bayonets and kicked and beat the prisoners wearing thin and broken clothes with ferocious faces. They quickly drove them to the open space in front of Liu Heitan and the others.
The air in the winter was so cold that it was almost freezing, but these prisoners whom the Japanese captured from who knows where were wearing summer tatters and beaten single clothes, huddled together in the cold, shivering all over.
Although the traitors who had received secret training had surrendered to the Japs, they felt sympathy for no reason when they saw that these prisoners who had been tortured did not look like humans or ghosts.
"What are they doing with these prisoners?" Looking at these prisoners with empty and numb eyes, the members of the traitor team all whispered in low voices.
"I guess the Japanese want to kill people again." Some traitor soldiers guessed.
"But if the murderer is dragged to the execution ground, why bring him here?" Some people were puzzled.
Someone suddenly said: "Should we let us take action?"
"Why, you don't dare?" someone asked.
"Who... who said they don't dare anymore, it's just that they are all unarmed people, so don't take action now..."
The traitors who received secret training looked at these Chinese people captured by the Japanese with extremely complicated emotions.
"Their conscience is greatly broken. Those who resist the imperial army's work are bad people!" Soon, the Japanese Captain Kameda walked up to Liu Heitan and the others, pointed at these ragged prisoners, and shouted loudly
accusation.
"The Imperial Army of Japan is here to help you establish the Daiei Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere. For these people, resisting the Imperial Army of Japan is destroying stability and unity!"
Listening to the Japanese Captain Kameda's jabbering, the traitors who received secret training also looked at these prisoners with hatred.
"They resisted the Imperial Japanese Army and went against the Imperial Japanese Army. They are going to die!" Captain Kameda said, then turned to the traitors and asked: "You said... don't you?"
"Yes, yes, dead!"
Some traitors were the first to react, hurriedly raised their arms and shouted, and hurriedly pulled the sleeves of the people next to them to signal that they should shout together.
"They are all dead!" The traitors all said in agreement with Captain Kameda.
"Yoshi! Your great loyalty!" Seeing that the traitors all spoke in agreement, Captain Kameda smiled evilly and praised them all.
"Kill them all and execute yours..." Soon, Captain Kameda gave the order to the traitor soldiers with a grin.
"Ah?" When the traitors heard Captain Kameda's sudden order, they were also stunned on the spot.
"Taijun is asking you to execute the execution! I'm giving you a chance to earn credit. Why, don't you understand?" At this time, the translator added.
When they heard that they were really going to kill these prisoners whom the Japanese had captured from who knows where, the traitor team, who had been beaming with joy just now, all fell silent and looked embarrassed.
If they were asked to fight the guerrillas and catch those hidden agents, they would naturally rush to the front.
But now they are a little hesitant to attack these unarmed people. They join the Japanese for a living, and some for fame and wealth, but many of them still have some conscience.
"Don't you want to?"
Seeing that all the traitors were silent, the translator asked with a sneer on his face.
The ugly smiling face of Japanese Captain Kameda who was standing aside also faded and began to turn gloomy.
On the high platform, the detachment leader Shouichi Watanabe was watching. This time he came to review their training results.
If they are not even willing to kill someone, they will definitely make the detachment leader Shouichi Watanabe unhappy.
So when he saw these traitors all falling silent, Captain Kameda, who wanted to show off in front of the detachment leader, immediately darkened his face and was very unhappy.
"Kedae Tai-kun, we are willing, willing! Anyone who goes against the Imperial Japanese Army is our enemy and will die!"
Seeing Captain Kameda's expression was wrong, team leader Liu Heitan hurriedly stood up and expressed his determination to carry out the order resolutely.
"Yoshi, your first!"
Seeing Liu Heitan stand up, Captain Kameda finally looked better and pointed at Liu Heitan.
"Me?" Captain Liu Heitan pointed at himself, while Captain Kameda nodded.
"yes!"
Liu Heitan looked at the ragged prisoners huddled together, gritted his teeth, grabbed his gun and walked out of the queue, but after taking two steps, he stopped again.
Japanese Captain Kameda signaled, and two wolf-like Japanese soldiers rushed towards the gathered prisoners. Soon, amid their frightened screams, they pulled out a skinny man and tied him with a rope to a tree stump.
"It's yours, go ahead." Captain Kameda pointed at the man tied to the tree stump and ordered Liu Heitan.
Liu Heitan looked back at the traitor soldiers who were all silent, and could only walk towards the tree stump step by step.
He didn't stop until he was only about twenty steps away from the tree stump. Then he slowly picked up the gun and loaded the gun with a click.
In full view of everyone, he put the butt of his gun on his shoulder and aimed at the male prisoner who was just a short distance away.
On the other side, when the prisoners in ragged clothes saw Liu Heitan raising his gun, some began to sob softly, while others cursed Liu Heitan and the others as traitors.
The Japanese did not urge him again. Everyone's eyes were fixed on Liu Heitan, waiting for him to shoot.
The skinny man who was tied to the tree stump was already dying, his hair was disheveled and his original appearance could not be seen.
Perhaps realizing that he was about to die, he raised his head and glanced at Liu Heitan, who was holding a gun. He did not look very frightened, but instead showed a sad smile: "You traitor, shoot me. Even if I die and become a ghost, you won't let him go."
I'll let you bitches and traitors..."
After hearing what the male prisoner said, Liu Heitan also had a grim look on his face. He even threatened himself when he was about to die. He really didn't know how to live or die.
"boom!"
The sulky-looking Liu Heitan's shoulders shook. The bullet roared out of the gun's muzzle, penetrating the skinny man and causing bloody sawdust to fly out of the wooden stake behind him.
Seeing that Liu Heitan actually fired, the Japanese detachment leader Watanabe Shouichi on the high platform applauded, and the Japanese soldiers applauded one after another.
"Yo Xi, Liu Sang, your squad leader!"
Seeing that Liu Heitan took the lead in accepting the certificate of submission and allowed the Japanese Captain Kameda to show his face in front of the detachment leader Watanabe Juichi, the Japanese Captain Kameda seemed very happy.
"Thank you Taijun for your cultivation!"
Although there were beads of sweat on Liu Heitan's forehead, he was even more desperate at this moment. Since he killed the Chinese in full view of the public, there was no turning back.
Liu Heitan walked aside, and the dead man was dragged away by the Japanese and thrown into the car. Another prisoner was captured and tied up.
"I'll do it!" This time, seeing Liu Heitan being directly appointed as the squadron leader, some traitors were ready to make a move, and took the initiative to stand up before Captain Kameda could speak.
"You're a traitor, you're going to die a good death!" Looking at the traitor who stood up, the kidnapped prisoner yelled.
"I don't know if you're going to die or not, but I know you're going to die soon!"
The traitor said, raised the gun in his hand, loaded the bullet, and pulled the trigger.
"Bang bang bang——"
The whistling bullets flew out, and the man who was cursing the traitor had several transparent blood holes all over his body, and the yelling stopped abruptly.
