Chapter 58 058 In Okamoto Temple: Don't Always Mention Secret Weapons (4.2K)
The headquarters of the Japanese army stationed in Xingshi.

And the headquarters of the Gendarmerie Brigade in Xing City.

Lincheng magistrate Wei Chuanbenzheng asked: "Senior, you are so anxious to call me over, is there something important?"

Okamoto Temple is ten years older than Kawamoto Masato, and looks calmer and more sophisticated.

"Kawamoto-kun, don't call me senior in public from now on, it will have a bad influence on you and me."

"It is also easy for the enemy to see the relationship between us, although they may have already figured out our details."

Okamoto added: "But the less the enemy knows about us, the less they know about us, the easier it will be for us to carry out our work."

"Yes! Commander Okamoto! I remember!" Kawamoto seemed to respect Okamoto very much.

This kind of respect comes from the heart, not just because of the difference in rank and rank.

"Okay, let's talk about business. The reason why I called you here today is because Major Chiba Ryoichi, the intelligence officer of Commander Shinozuka, provided a piece of information."

"It's about the Wolf Fang Brigade of the Eighth Route Army in Wuyi County, Hengshui area."

Kawamoto felt very strange:
"Mr. Qianye? Wasn't he transferred to the Hengshui Gendarmerie Headquarters to assist the Captain of the Yamashita Regiment?"

Okamoto introduced: "Just received the notification that Fengwu Yamashita was ambushed by the Spike Battalion of the Eighth Route Army. The four squadrons of the Imperial Army were almost wiped out."

"Yamashita is also seriously injured. He has already returned to China for treatment in Manchuria. All his duties have been relieved. After he recovers from his injuries, he will be tried by a court-martial."

Kawamoto was gearing up: "Then what does this matter have to do with our Xing City area?"

"Could it be that General Shinozuka wants us to destroy this Eighth Route Army unit?"

Okamoto: "We don't need to go, they will come to the door soon."

"According to Mr. Qianye's report, the Eighth Route Army's Spike Brigade has been reorganized into the 386th Brigade Independent Battalion."

"I will march to your Lincheng in a few days and will be stationed here. This is more specific information, please take a look."

With that said, Okamoto gave Kawamoto the document marked top secret.

Kawamoto looked very excited and eagerly opened the portfolio:
"Finally something to do, I can't wait."

After reading the document, Kawamoto felt even more confident:
"Mr. Qianye's investigation is very detailed, with an analysis and description of the identity, background and personality traits of each cadre in the independent battalion."

"This is really a big help for the next step."

"It's just that I don't understand. It's really incomprehensible for Captain Yamashita to make such a major military mistake when he has such a good helper."

Okamoto said: "This is another reason why I asked you to come here, to tell you not to underestimate the enemy."

"It can make so many imperial troops suffer, which shows that this Wang Liang is definitely not a mediocre person, and he is obviously different from the Xing City guerrilla detachment."

Kawamoto said with a smile: "Yes, Commander, I must act cautiously, please rest assured!"

"Don't forget, we also dropped a secret weapon outside."

"If he lands successfully, in Chinese, it will definitely be enough for Eight Road to drink a pot."

Okamoto was noncommittal: "We can't rely too much on these things. Isn't Yamashita's defeat a bloody lesson?"

"Captain Kawamoto, you must keep your head clear, understand?"

"Also, don't always mention this secret weapon, are you afraid that others will not know?"

"Yes, I remember." Kawamoto nodded repeatedly, blushing from the criticism.

"Okay, let's go and see the leader of the Eight Routes that we caught." Okamoto greeted.

Go to the gendarmerie building and go down to the interrogation room on the second basement level.

There were shrill screams from time to time inside, and the eerie atmosphere inevitably made one's hair stand on end, causing goosebumps all over the body.

Okamoto and Kawamoto seem to be very used to such scenes.

Under the guidance of Cao Chang, he went straight to an interrogation room in the deepest part.

"Is he still silent?" Okamoto asked.

Cao Chang replied: "Yes, Commander, this is a diehard."

"All non-lethal instruments of torture were used for him, but he still didn't say a word, very tough."

"Go in and have a look."

Open the heavy iron door of the interrogation room.

What came to the nostrils was an unpleasant smell of blood and stench that made people vomit.

There are no windows in the house, only dim lights.

I saw a man who was covered in blood and flesh and whose face could not be seen clearly was tied to a cross.

Okamoto stepped forward and asked, "Captain Hao, do you still insist on not cooperating with our imperial army?"

Hearing the change of voice, the prisoner looked up with great difficulty and opened his eyes.

Although scarred and tortured to the brink of death, those eyes are still piercing.

His eyes were full of determination and unyielding.

Hao Yiren just looked up at Okamoto.

Then he drooped his head again, still not saying a word, keeping silent.

"Commander, this guy probably doesn't know how to speak, and is completely useless."

"In my opinion, just use all the torture available."

"Look at how hard his bones are. If you still refuse to cooperate in the end, drag him to feed the wolf dogs."

When Kawamoto suggested from the side, Okamoto had been observing Hao Yiren's muscle reaction.

In the face of fear, people can pretend to be fearless.

But the muscles of the whole body will give the answer very honestly, and the muscles will vibrate uncontrollably.

With Hao Yiren, Okamoto did not get the answer he expected, but this did not surprise him:
"No, no, Captain Hao has already helped our imperial army a lot, we shouldn't treat him in this way."

"What's more, death is a kind of relief for a person like him, and it's something he can't wait for."

Then ordered Cao Changdao:
"Starting today, stop all interrogations of Captain Hao."

"Let the military doctor with the best medical skills treat his wounds."

"In addition to this, we should provide Captain Hao with the best guarantees in terms of housing, food, entertainment, etc."

"We must not treat the person who has made contributions to the imperial army slowly, even if he helped the imperial army unintentionally."

Cao Chang: "Hi!"

After explaining to Chief Cao, Okamoto and Kawamoto returned to the office.

Xing City Lincheng.

boom--

boom--

As soon as Wang Liang, who was the vanguard of the fourth company with a magnet, entered the border of Lincheng, he heard gunshots in the distance.

After distinguishing the direction of the gunshots, Wang Liang ordered:

"It's shooting from the southwest, the reconnaissance team went over to see what's going on!"

"Watch out for concealment!"

After receiving the order, the eight members of the reconnaissance team quickly spread out in the shape of a "herringbone" and moved forward quickly.

Skillful and experienced.

This is all due to the rigorous training of Zhou Weiguo and Xu Hu.

"map!"

Hearing the greeting, the security platoon leader Zhao Shoutian quickly took out the map from his satchel and spread it on the ground.

After working on the map for a while, Wang Liang found the specific location of the team.

Dongzhen town.

The reconnaissance squad leader came back to report after finding out the situation: "Report to the battalion commander, we found someone who the puppet army was chasing after two kilometers to the southwest."

"Judging from the clothes he wears, he looks like a fighter of our guerrilla army."

Before Wang Liang could make a decision, the magnet could not sit still:

"Then what are you waiting for, hurry up and save people!"

Wang Liang stood up and kicked the magnet directly, angrily said:
"Save people, save people, save people as far as the fuck knows."

"Do you know the number of enemies, and are there any reinforcements nearby?"

"There are 1 enemies and you take this No. 60 to fight?"

Magnet held his buttocks and said stubbornly:

"Battalion Commander, they're just some bastards."

"If you fire two shots, you will be scared away. I am afraid that it will be too late."

"You just give the order, my magnet will guarantee to complete the task!"

Wang Liang checked more information with the reconnaissance squad leader: "Have you found the devil? How many enemies are there?"

The reconnaissance squad leader said: "There are no devils, they are all puppet soldiers wearing big-brimmed hats."

"The number of people is estimated to be around twenty, which should be the strength of a platoon."

It's not that Wang Liang is overly cautious, it's just that he is new here and unfamiliar with the place.

The social situation, the enemy's situation, and the people's situation are not grasped.

Wang Liang was really afraid that he would step into a pit with the first step.

Wang Liang ordered the magnet who took the initiative to ask for a fight:
"Take a row or two over there to have a look. Remember, withdraw immediately after you save someone."

"Don't love to fight, let alone chase people."

"Okay, I'll remember it!" Magnet was already impatient, and immediately led people to attack after receiving Wang Liang's order.

boom--

boom--

Da da da--

Da da da--

There was only a burst of crackling gunshots.

Ten minutes later.

The magnet returned triumphantly.

"His grandma's is too unpleasant."

"The Ergouzi in Xingshi is as dead as the Ergouzi in Hengshui. The mud can't support the wall."

"After killing a few, the rest of them were scared to death and all ran away. It's really boring."

Just listen to the magnet complaining.

Wang Liang had no time to pay attention to this idiot.

Seeing that three people had been rescued, he greeted the soldiers to give them water and then stepped forward and asked:
"Which part are you from?"

Three, you look at me, I look at you.

After seeing that the other party was wearing the uniform of the Eighth Route Army, the doubts were dispelled.

After a while, a short and thin man stood up and replied:
"We are from the Lincheng Brigade of the Xing City Guerrilla Detachment. My name is Li Si, and I am the platoon leader."

"Chief, there are our wounded and sick in the village ahead, please go and rescue them!"

Faced with the request of the fighters of the guerrilla detachment, Wang Liang couldn't care so much, so he could only understand the specific situation with Li Si while walking.

It turned out that after the Xing City guerrilla detachment was ambushed by the Japanese army and suffered heavy losses, all the brigades and small teams also dispersed.

They lost contact with each other and could only fight on their own.

The village in front is called Shangya Village, which was just swept away by devils not long ago, and the villagers were dying and running.

It is now an empty village.

Li Si placed all the wounded in the village.

I wanted to take a few soldiers out to find something to eat, but I didn't expect to encounter the puppet army.

"Chief, are you here to avenge our Xing City guerrilla detachment?" Li Si asked Wang Liang.

Wang Liang smiled and introduced himself:

"Well, I'm Wang Liang, commander of the Independent Battalion of the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army."

"From today, our independent battalion will be stationed in Lincheng County to carry out the struggle behind the enemy lines."

Li Si was very excited when he heard this:
"Battalion Commander Wang, you must avenge our sacrificed brothers!"

"We lost hundreds of comrades this time!"

"Goddamn you little devil, he won't even spare the old people and children in the resident!"

"We must kill these beasts and avenge the sacrificed comrades and fellow villagers!"

As he spoke, Li Si began to cry.

The magnet was filled with righteous indignation, and patted his chest to promise:

"Brother, don't worry."

"We are here to kill devils, your revenge is on me."

"thanks, thanks!"

Li Si thanked him repeatedly, raised his hand and wiped the gap on his face covered by his tears with his sleeve.

There was an imperceptible weird smile on the corner of his mouth.

In Shangya Village.

Chaoba was overjoyed after hearing the report from his subordinates who came back.

"My God, the fourth brother caught a big fat fish this time! Isn't this going to make a fortune?!"

Chao Ba was originally the leader of a group of bandits entrenched in Lincheng.

There were [-] people under his command, and he was later recruited by Mr. Kawamoto as a security force.

After getting in touch with him, Kawamoto felt that Chaoba was vicious and aggressive.

He is a good hand that can be used, so he was appointed as the head of the security force.

And specially developed a set of reward mechanism for him.

The standard of assessment is to count the number of resisters arrested or killed.

The larger the number, the richer the bounty you get.

This greatly mobilized the enthusiasm of Chaoba and his subordinates.

From then on, this group of people committed crimes in the Xingshi area.

Burn, kill, loot, do all evil.

Recently, inspired by Masato Kawamoto, Chaoba studied a new routine.

It is to let a few of my brothers pretend to be fighters of the guerrilla detachment to wander around, inquiring about the whereabouts of the dispersed team.

Seeing that they were guerrilla fighters, the simple villagers did not defend at all.

Just tell the truth about everything you know.

In this way, Chaoba found and brutally killed many soldiers.

No matter how good the routine is, it won't work if you use it too much.

Chao Ba racked his brains, and invented another trick of bitterness.

Let the people under him chase the guerrilla fighters pretending to be their own people.

As soon as the gunshot rang out, if there were guerrillas hiding nearby, they would definitely be attracted to check the situation.

After many contacts, Chaoba is very familiar with the behavior style of the guerrillas.

He will never sit back and watch his comrades fall into danger.

What Chaoba didn't expect was that it opened today just after pulling out the team.

And a big order came all of a sudden.

As the chief of staff of the military division, he suggested:
"Brother, I heard from the brothers who came back that there are six No. 70 people in this gang."

"And the weapons and equipment are not like the Tubalu before, and the marksmanship is not bad, it should be a regular army."

"We lost five or six brothers in just ten minutes of fighting."

"If it wasn't for the quick withdrawal, I'm afraid none of the twenty would be able to come back."

"If you want me to say, no, let's go and inform the Japanese in the nearby stronghold."

"Let them send some people to support us, it will be more stable."

Chaoba shook his head and rejected the suggestion:
"No! If the Japanese are called in, how will the reward be calculated? It must not be greatly discounted!"

"Isn't it No. 60, didn't we bring out No. [-] today?"

"They are all good gunners one on top of each other, and they have an advantage in numbers. There is nothing to be afraid of."

"What's more, we are in the dark, and the Eighth Route is in the light, and the fourth child leads people into the village, so we can catch them by surprise."

"Tell the brothers to cheer up and don't let Laozi lose the chain. After this matter is over, each person will have five silver dollars."
