Chapter 62 The Bad News Comes
The main force left the city to carry out encirclement and suppression missions. The Japanese squad leader who stayed in the county was still somewhat worried. Although the two cities were only dozens of miles apart, one team controlled a county town, and the squad leader still felt a little weak.
If it weren't for clear, there were few rebellious armed forces around the surrounding area, and I guess the Japanese wouldn't dare to be so bold. The Japanese who implemented the policy of loosening the outside and tightening the inside would take out all their limited troops to pretend.
At least from the surface, except for the few Japanese on duty at the city gate, Japanese soldiers are still guarding other important areas of the county town. In this way, the people in the city will still feel fear when they see these sentries.
The sentry responsible for the guards outside the city were waiting for the sun to set off quickly and close the city gates to rest. The soldiers on duty soon heard the sound of cars coming from a distance, and dozens of soldiers jogging slowly with the cars.
The Japanese, who were staying in the machine gun position, saw the team that suddenly appeared, and said alertly: "Be alert!"
Compared to the Japanese's vigilance, the plainclothes team on duty also cheered up and said, "Everything is more energetic, Taijun is back in the city!"
Two cars were the first to start, and there were soldiers following the car, and the military uniforms worn by the soldiers were easy to identify. Some plainclothes team members with good eyes also knew that they had returned from their backs and needed to show their spirit.
Most of the street gangsters were recruited by the Japanese army to become plainclothes team members, and most of these street gangsters also received some military training. Although the training time was not long, these gangsters still knew some of the requirements of the Japanese. When there were Japanese, they would pay special attention.
The reason is that if the Japanese are dissatisfied with each other, they are likely to be beaten. Although they show off their power in front of the people, they still have to pretend to be grandchildren in front of the Japanese, and even if they are beaten, they must stand honestly.
When I saw the Japanese who came straight to the city gate, I said with a little puzzled look: "Is this the troops coming from there? Why didn't I get notice in advance? You two, be careful! I'll go and take a look!"
"Hi!"
The Japanese soldiers who led the team walked out near the post. The Japanese soldiers who were on duty were still guarding the machine gun positions. As for the plainclothes team members who cooperated with the duty, they were more pretending to fool the passing people.
When the car arrived at the city gate, it braked. Looking at the lieutenant walking out of the cab, the Japanese soldiers also said cautiously: "Hello, lieutenant! Please explain your purpose?"
"You are from the Forest City? This is my certificate! I am the Lieutenant of the River River who has just returned from the front line to transport supplies. This is my certificate! Who is the commander in the city now?"
Listening to what the lieutenant said, the sergeant breathed a little relieved, and looked at the soldiers who were advancing with the car from time to time. Although he felt something was wrong, the sergeant still didn't dare to say anything more.
After taking the certificate and reading it, the sergeant also said respectfully: "Lieutenant Kawakawa, I am Hirataro Ono who is in charge of the city gate. Our squadron leader has left with a task, and now the Lieutenant Yamashita is in charge. Is the Lieutenant going to enter the city?"
"What? Ono Juncao, do you still want to stop me from entering the city? Is your squadron leader named Ishita Miyachi?"
"Lieutenant, I dare not! Yes! Lieutenant Kawakawa knows our squadron leader?"
"Sorry! I really don't know your squadron leader! If he can survive, maybe we still have a chance to be friends. Since you are soldiers from his squadron, come with me to see if those people are from your squadron!"
"Sorry! I don't understand what the lieutenant means?"
Just when Ono Juncao was confused, Lieutenant Kawakawa said directly: "When I returned earlier, my convoy encountered a seriously injured Empire warrior on the road! He told me that he was a soldier stationed in Lincheng.
The warrior told me that he and his troops were ordered to carry out the clearance mission, but they encountered an ambush from unknown armed forces. The squadron leader was broken. He was thrown into the dead body. Fortunately, he woke up and boldly stopped the car when he saw the convoy.
Unfortunately, my convoy did not have professional medical soldiers and was unable to provide him with timely treatment. Under his guidance, we found the remains of hundreds of imperial warriors who died in battle in a valley next to the highway. Because there were too many bodies, we could not bring them all back.
Finally, under his guidance, I brought back the bodies of the squadron leader and several officers he mentioned. I hope you can identify it. Ono Sergeant, you should know that if this matter is true, then this matter will be very serious."
Looking at Lieutenant Kawakawa with a serious face, Junsho Ono said in disbelief after listening to the other party's story: "Lieutenant Kawakawa, you won't be kidding, are you? Although our squadron has left the city, who dares to ambush them?"
"Ono Soldier, don't forget that although this is the rear, it is still a battlefield. Can you guarantee that there are no Chinese anti-Japanese troops and armed forces in the rear? Forget it, please identify first if those people are the commanders of your squadron!"
"Hi!"
After Lieutenant Kawakawa's words, Ono Juncao, who was a little unruly, soon saw Lieutenant Kawakawa coming to the car and ordered several soldiers: "You guys, lift those corpses down!"
"Hi!"
The soldiers who received the order quickly climbed onto the car and carried off several bodies covered in white cloth. During this process, the soldiers who were originally responsible for guarding the machine gun position temporarily left the position under the command of Lieutenant Hechuan.
As for those plainclothes teams who wanted to come and see the fun, Lieutenant Hakawa frowned and said, "You guys, don't get close!"
“Yes, yes!”
Looking at these plainclothes team members with a flattering face, Lieutenant Kawakawa said in Japanese again: "This matter should not be made public! If the matter is true, then this matter must be reported as soon as possible. This matter cannot be known to the Chinese people in the city, do you understand?"
"clear!"
Several Japanese soldiers in charge of the city gates heard the instructions of Lieutenant Kawakawa and knew that if the squadron was really beaten and ambushed, it would be easy to damage the image of the Japanese army. This would not help them control the county town.
When several bodies were carried out of the car and placed at the rear of the car, Lieutenant Hechuan even instructed several accompanying soldiers to block the eyes of the plainclothes team members. Similarly, these accompanying soldiers also blocked the eyes of the Japanese soldiers.
When the white cloth was lifted and seeing the familiar faces, Ono Junsho said with horror: "Captain Ishita!"
"Sergeant Ono, are you sure? He is really your squadron leader?"
"Yes! I can confirm! Lieutenant, where did you find them?"
"Thirty miles away, there is a valley next to the highway. Near the highway, I found signs of war. I even judged that the ambushing troops should not have gone too far. Unfortunately, I have a mission and it is not convenient to send troops to pursue them!"
To briefly explain the situation, Lieutenant Kawakawa looked at the Japanese soldiers with a sad face and said directly: "Ono Soldier, now is not a time to be sad. What we need to do is to report this news. Is there a radio station in the city?"
"have!"
"What are you still standing there? Go to the city quickly and report the situation to your temporary commander, and he will handle the matter. I have a task and need to return to Shanghai as soon as possible. It is best for you to take over this matter yourself. I can't ask too much about it."
"Yes, Lieutenant Kawakawa, please wait. I will send someone to inform the captain of Yamashita!"
After reading Lieutenant Hechuan's ID, he knew that the other party was a military officer in charge of transporting materials, and the division of labor was different from their combat troops. If he rashly interfered in other people's business, it would be very likely to cause disgust from the commander of the combat troops.
But the other party was a lieutenant and brought back the body of the squadron leader Yumao. Ono Juncao naturally knew the seriousness of the matter. As a sergeant, he had no right to deal with such things. The best way was to report the situation.
Just as he was about to enter the city, Lieutenant Hechuan said again: "Put the body of the warrior in the car and we drive into the city. Second team, you stay outside the city, and the first team follows me into the city. Before I come out, no one is allowed to leave the city."
"Hi!"
After giving orders to the two lieutenants under his command, Lieutenant Kawakawa asked someone to drive into the city. He accompanied Ono Juncao and walked along with the car to enter the city. The city gate guard post was taken over by a small team of soldiers left behind.
Seeing Lieutenant Hechuan and his party disappeared at the city gate, the remaining Japanese soldiers in charge of the city gate mail were also feeling a little sad. Just as they were about to return to the post, more than a dozen accompanying soldiers who were staying outside the city suddenly took action.
Looking at the soldiers brought by the Japanese lieutenant, he suddenly took out a knife to assassinate the Japanese defending the city. The plainclothes team members on duty couldn't help but be stunned. Just as someone was about to resist, the "Japanese Japanese" who had been staring at them also started to speak.
"Whoever dares to move around will kill you!"
