A group of people rushed outside the door and surrounded the unsuspecting company and platoon leaders. Faced with the sudden change, the company and platoon leaders all wanted to touch their guns.
Unfortunately, their guns had been unhooked and placed outside the door. While cursing secretly, they picked up the bench and confronted the gun-wielding guards. The room suddenly became chaotic.
Battalion Commander Xie Zhengxiang and the middle-aged man in gray robe took advantage of the chaos and retreated behind the gun-wielding guards, looking coldly at the panicked company and platoon commanders with sneers on their faces.
"Xie Zhengxiang, you bitch, if you dare to surrender to the enemy, you will be punished!"
Facing the dark gun muzzles around them, the company and platoon commanders holding the benches in their hands were filled with anger, and they began to curse with dark faces.
"Xie, I really misjudged you. I didn't expect you to be a traitor."
"Chief Yang will not let you go, and you will not succeed!"
...
The brothers were very angry. They were bent on fighting the Japanese, but they didn't expect that they would be betrayed now.
"Xie Zhengxiang, I'm warning you, it's better to turn around and don't do stupid things!" The deputy battalion commander's face was extremely ugly as his knife was pointed at the gun.
He never expected that Xie Zhengxiang would secretly collude with the Nanjing puppet government and now put himself in a passive state.
However, facing Xie Zhengxiang and the others who had been prepared for a long time, Daozi and the others did not even have the strength to resist now, so they could only delay time secretly to see if they could escape first.
After all, Daozi had absolute trust in the brothers in the camp. He believed that most of the brothers were unwilling to surrender to the enemy. As long as they left, Xie Zhengxiang's conspiracy would fail.
Facing the noisy and angry company and platoon commanders, Fourth Battalion Commander Xie Zhengxiang had an indifferent attitude.
Now that the cards have been shown, there is no room for maneuver. He can only go all the way to the black, otherwise his end will definitely be miserable.
"Good wood chooses birds to die. I advise everyone to see the situation clearly, don't make mistakes, and follow me if you know the current affairs. When the time comes, you will be popular and drink spicy food. When you get there, you will be promoted to two levels. I, Xie Zhengxiang, will never treat you badly."
, if you don’t understand current affairs, then don’t blame me for not thinking about Pao Ze.
Fourth Battalion Commander Xie Zhengxiang stared at the company and platoon commanders under his command and threatened them fiercely.
"Xie, we won't follow you even if we die."
"Yes, just give up on this idea. Brothers are all strong-willed Chinese men. How can we be those groveling traitors!"
...
Facing Xie Zhengxiang's persuasion to surrender, the brothers glared and scolded him, causing Xie Zhengxiang's complexion to turn blue and white, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent.
"Battle Commander Xie, it seems your men are not very obedient."
Seeing Xie Zhengxiang's inability to control the troops, the middle-aged man in gray robe next to him showed a disappointed expression.
"I will give you one last chance. If you are willing to follow me, come forward. When you get there, you will be promoted to two levels. If you take a bite of me, you will have half a bite of yours. If you remain stubborn, don't blame me for being ruthless!
"Xie Zhengxiang said murderously.
"Thousands of Japanese troops have already arrived. The Northern Jiangsu Corps is almost finished. Those who know the current affairs are heroes. Those who want to survive must come over quickly."
Although the brothers were angrily reprimanding Xie Zhengxiang, at this time of life and death, facing the dark muzzles around them, they quickly became quiet.
"Brothers, don't be fooled, we can't be traitors!" Some brothers shouted hurriedly when they saw someone showing hesitation.
"I'll go with you." After hesitating for a long time, a deputy company commander couldn't help but raise his hand.
"Old Liu, what are you doing!" Seeing that the deputy company commander was about to surrender to the enemy, someone couldn't help but ask.
"I don't want to die." The deputy company commander said, squeezed out of the crowd and walked towards Xie Zhengxiang.
"Okay, very good, is there anyone else?" Xie Zhengxiang saw that someone was willing to follow him, and the company commander smiled.
"Batalion Commander, I'm going with you too."
After someone took the lead, five more people walked out one after another, including three platoon commanders, a company commander, and a deputy company commander.
These people were usually close to the battalion commander Xie Zhengxiang, and now they all stood up one after another.
In the end, except for these people, the other company and platoon commanders all glared angrily, resolutely not being traitors.
"Take him down and imprison him first!"
Seeing the deputy battalion commander Daozi, they were all resolute, and the battalion commander Xie Zhengxiang did not waste any time and ordered the guards to take them into custody.
He wanted to execute them now, but he did not dare to act rashly until he had control of the troops. Once he fired and alerted the troops, it would be troublesome.
Battalion Commander Xie Zhengxiang left a few people who were willing to follow him in the conference room, directly appointed them as new company commanders, and asked them to control the troops in each company.
"Lieutenant, what should we do now?"
Deputy battalion commander Dao Zi and some brothers who were unwilling to be traitors were locked in a dark room. At this moment, they were all as anxious as ants on a hot pot.
They knew that if Xie Zhengxiang's conspiracy succeeded, Huaiyin would be in danger and the North Jiangsu Corps would be in danger.
"We must find a way to stop Xie." Deputy Battalion Commander Daozi had calmed down from the panic at this moment.
"But we can't get out."
Even the platoon leaders did not expect that their boat had capsized in the ditch, and they were all a little panicked at the moment.
"Window, climb out of the window!" After the knife circled around the house, his eyes lit up and he pointed to the window at the back of the house and said.
Because the incident happened suddenly, Xie Zhengxiang and the others immediately locked Knife and the others in the solitary room, but they forgot that there was a window behind the solitary room.
Generally, even if officers and soldiers who make mistakes are locked up in a solitary room, they can climb out through the window, but they don't dare. They can only endure it and wait to get out.
But they couldn't care so much about the knife. When they saw a window, they knew there was a way to escape.
Everyone hurried to the window, because outside the window was an alley at the back of the yard, and they could run out.
When the company and platoon commanders were climbing through the windows, the guards guarding the outside felt something was wrong. They took a glance and were shocked.
Once Daozi and the others are allowed to escape, their plot to surrender to the enemy will be exposed, and no one will survive.
"boom!"
"Stop, whoever runs again will be killed!"
The guard hurriedly opened the door of the solitary room, fired a shot into the room, and shouted a warning.
"We are covering, you go!" When several brothers saw that they were discovered, they turned around and pounced on the guards.
When the guard saw several platoon leaders rushing towards him, he was also anxious, hurriedly pulled the bolt of his gun and fired again.
Battalion Commander Xie Zhengxiang had just assigned the task when he suddenly heard the sound of gunfire and hurriedly ran out.
"what happened?"
"They're trying to escape through the window!"
"What are you doing standing still? Rush in and stop them!"
A group of guards rushed forward and tried to break into the house to stop the people who were climbing through the windows, but several platoon commanders blocked the door tightly and they could not get in.
"Damn it, shoot, shoot!" the angry battalion commander Xie Zhengxiang shouted, knowing the consequences of Daozi and the others running away.
"Bang bang bang..."
The bullets roared through the wooden door, revealing holes that were transparent to the light. The platoon leaders who were holding the door trembled all over, and streams of blood came out.
