"Do you know where Xu Haichuan is hiding?" Interpreter Jin asked a villager who was randomly pulled out with a loudspeaker.
The villager said with a trembling voice: "What... Xu... Haichuan, I don't know him at all..."
"boom!"
Jiro Sakai raised his hand and fired a shot. He suffered a lot in Yangcun and took this opportunity to vent his anger. Otherwise, he wouldn't have to do it himself.
Tian Junsheng approached Hattori Hikoo and whispered: "Major, if you kill all the people in the village, will it have a bad impact on the imperial army?"
Hattori Hikoo said expressionlessly: "Let's just say to the outside world that Yang Village was hit by the plague, and everyone was infected and died."
Tian Junsheng pinched his teeth and said hesitantly: "This statement seems, seems..."
"What does it look like? Are you worried that the outside world won't believe it?"
"Thank you, that's what I mean."
Hattori Hikoo sneered: "Captain Tian, do you know what the truth is?"
"ah?"
"Whoever has a gun in his hand speaks the truth!"
"Yes, yes, you are right..."
Hattori Hikoo glanced at him and said: "Captain Tian, you will be responsible for the next one!"
"I...execute?"
"Any questions?"
"……No!"
Jiro Sakai, who was standing aside, said: "Captain Tian, you are lucky. I just chose one. What do you think?"
As he spoke, he waved his hand, and two Japanese soldiers dragged out a woman of about thirty years old from the crowd.
The woman's belly was slightly swollen, and she looked like she was at least six or seven months pregnant. She was so frightened that she couldn't stand still, and her whole body was shaking. Tears were falling down.
It was not that Tian Junsheng had never killed anyone before, but killing a pregnant woman was something he had never done before. He reluctantly gave Jiro Sakai a bared smile and walked over.
"Tell me, where is Xu Haichuan hiding?"
The woman collapsed on the ground and kept crying. With the previous example, everyone knew that after Tian Junsheng asked this question, the next step was to shoot and kill!
The woman's husband came out of the crowd and protected his wife. He kept bowing to Tian Junsheng and begged: "Captain Tian, please be merciful. We are all fellow villagers. Please spare us..."
Tian Junsheng said irritably: "Please help me... I tell you, don't blame anyone. If you want to blame, blame the Communist Party member Xu Haichuan. He killed you!"
Two Japanese soldiers came over and dragged the husband aside. As he struggled, he cried and cursed: "One corpse, two lives...Tian Junsheng, you must die a good death!"
Tian Junsheng murmured: "I, he, have known for a long time that he will not die well, and you still need you to tell me..."
Jiro Sakai smiled and said: "Captain Tian, shoot in the stomach, I guarantee a double shot!"
Tian Junsheng calmed down, raised his gun, took aim, and put his finger on the trigger...
"Stop!" A voice shouted from the woods, and Xu Haichuan strode out.
Hattori Hikoo didn't have much hope as to whether his method would work. After all, not many people would be willing to risk their own lives to save others.
Seeing Xu Haichuan finally appear, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The death of a few soldiers was a trivial matter. In the event of an enemy ambush, casualties were inevitable.
However, if he escaped and the Communist Party wanted to commit "Lao Qiu", Hattori Hikoo had no way to explain it to his superiors. What he was most worried about was that Shimomura would use this incident to remove him from his post and investigate.
This is also the main reason why Hattori Hikoo would rather massacre the entire village than force Xu Haichuan out!
"Major, we have searched him and he does not have any weapons on him." Two Japanese soldiers brought Xu Haichuan over.
Hattori Hikoo: "Mr. Xu, I have to say that you are the first enemy that I admire!"
Looking at the corpses of several villagers lying on the ground, Xu Haichuan said: "On the contrary, you are an enemy that I despise!"
"Oh why?"
"They are just ordinary people, not soldiers with guns!"
Hattori Hikoo said calmly: "There is no way, if I don't do this, how can I catch you again? Imperial soldiers only pursue results, the process... is not that important."
Xu Haichuan turned around, looked at the surrounding garrison soldiers, and said loudly: "Brothers in the garrison, we are all Chinese and have parents, children, brothers and sisters. How can we bear to watch the Japanese massacre our compatriots?
And indifferent?"
Many soldiers in the garrison lowered their heads in shame. Tian Junsheng scolded: "Xu, don't promote your red ideas here, no one will believe you!"
Xu Haichuan sneered: "Which sentence I just said is a red thought? They are all the most basic conscience of a Chinese!"
Tian Junsheng waved his pistol and said in a panic: "You, shut up, if you say one more thing, I will kill you now!"
Xu Haichuan stretched out his hand and patted his chest, and said without fear: "Since I dare to come back, why am I afraid that you will shoot me? Tian Junsheng, you have a gun in your hand, and you are willing to accept a thief as your father and a traitor. Say it yourself, who do you think you are!"
"
Tian Junsheng's face turned red and white, and he argued stubbornly: "Everyone has his own ambitions. I can do it with whomever I want, so you can eat carrots and worry less!"
Hattori Hikoo waved his hand and said: "Put Xu Haichuan into the car and close the team!"
To the villagers in Yangcun, Xu Haichuan is nothing less than a heroic figure. The tall image of the Communist Party in their hearts is slowly accumulated bit by bit...
In the evening, the gendarmerie headquarters.
"Ring ring ring ring!" The phone on the table suddenly rang.
Hattori Hikoo had just returned from the interrogation room. The guard who answered the phone said: "Major, this is Commander Shimomura's call."
"Your Excellency, Commander, this is Hattori Hikoo, what are your instructions?" Hattori Hikoo quickly picked up the phone and said respectfully.
Shimomura Sada on the other end of the phone said: "There was a firefight in Yangcun this morning. What happened?"
"While searching for the Communist Party, the gendarmerie encountered an ambush from the other party. However, don't worry, I have already brought the situation under control."
"Hmm...how is that old Qiu's situation?"
"This person is a die-hard person. He has been severely punished once, but he still refuses to say anything."
"What are you going to do with him?"
"The Communist Party has been trying to rescue him, which shows that Lao Qiu is very important to them. In order to avoid long nights and dreams, I suggest that he be shot immediately!"
"It's too cheap to shoot him..."
"What do you mean?"
"Send it to the Water Supply and Epidemic Prevention Department, and you can make some contribution to the imperial army!"
"clear!"
"Next Friday, Commander Tada Shun of the North China Front will come to Yanjin for inspection. The military police must prepare in advance and ensure the commander's safety while he is in Yanjin!"
"yes!"
after one day.
Xu Haichuan, covered with bruises and bruises, was secretly sent to the Water Supply and Epidemic Prevention Department, where he became another living organism cultivating bacteria.
