Chapter 7: Dog Squad
Late at night, in the courtyard of a farmhouse in Wuyang Village, a dark shadow stepped over the low courtyard wall, came to the door of a low earthen house, and knocked lightly on the door made of broken wooden boards.
"Squeak"
The door opened, and a black head poked out of it, looked warily behind the shadow, dodged him into the room, and quickly closed the door.
There were no lights in the house, and in the dark, a total of seven or eight figures could be faintly seen in the house.
As soon as the dark shadow entered the house, someone came up to him and asked in a low voice:
"Lao Li, who is the target this time?"
The shadow found a chair and sat down, took off the dogskin hat on his head, shook the snow on it, and sighed heavily.
"Bang"
With a soft sound, someone lit a dim oil lamp, illuminating the small space.
Counting the person known as "Lao Li", there were a total of eight people in the room.
"Lao Li" is none other than --- Li Min, the person in charge of the Panshi County Party Committee.
After 918, the Panshi County Party Committee set up a special task force to crack down on traitors.
The one who just opened the door was the captain Wang Gensheng.
In the past three months, the special task force has successfully eliminated five traitors, and they have been called the "dog fighting team" by the masses.
After Wang Gensheng lit the oil lamp, he immediately asked Li Min with some urgency:
"Lao Li, we've been waiting for more than half a month, you must have come to assign tasks this time, right?"
Li Min's gaze swept over the faces of several people, and he said with some concern:
"Last night, the Japanese named Miki disappeared, and now the situation in the rock is very tense, everyone should not act rashly recently, wait for my order!"
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and Wang Gensheng hurriedly asked:
"Killed?"
Li Min shook his head:
"It's not clear yet, no body was found, but judging by Ono's movements, it should be like this."
A team member named Gong Dali said with some excitement:
"That's the good news! That Miki should have died a long time ago! If you didn't agree, we would have done it a long time ago! ”
Li Min glared at Gong Dali, and said with a worried face:
"That's not all the good news! After the Japanese came, there has been no big move, and I don't let you move Miki, because the time is not yet ripe, once you anger Ono, it will inevitably implicate innocent people, with our current power, we can't protect these villagers at all, so this is definitely not good news! ”
The crowd stopped talking for a while.
Li Min's worries were right, if he really couldn't find this Miki, or found his body, then I was afraid that the people of Panshi would suffer.
Early the next morning, Panshi County.
"Bang!"
Liu Cheng had just taken off two door panels, and the remaining two were kicked off.
Four or five fierce Japanese soldiers held their guns and pointed their bayonets at Liu Cheng's chest and said viciously:
"You, go outside!"
Liu Cheng showed an expression of extreme fear on his face, walked to the door very obediently, and stood at the bottom of the steps to look at the store.
Feng Yuhe heard the movement in the front yard and hurriedly greeted him, but was pushed to the ground by a Japanese soldier.
The Japanese soldier stepped on Feng Yuhe's body and asked in stiff Chinese:
"Yours, the night before yesterday, where?!"
Feng Yuhe didn't dare to resist, lying on the ground and trembling, said:
"I, I'm at home, Taijun, I'm a good person, I've been delivering food to Taijun!"
Liu Cheng, who was standing outside the door, suddenly heard a rush of footsteps from behind, turned his head to look, and found that it was Ono Taro who came over with someone.
Ono's expression was calm, and there was no trace of anxiety or anger on his face.
He didn't pay attention to Liu Cheng and walked straight into the grain store.
When Feng Yuhe saw Xiao Ye, he immediately shouted loudly:
"Ono-kun, Ono-kun, what--do you mean?"
Ono waved his hand at the Japanese soldier who was stepping on Feng Yuhe, and the Japanese immediately stepped aside.
He personally stepped forward to help Feng Yuhe up, and patted the dust on his body for him with his own hands:
"Boss Feng, I'm offended, Miki-kun is gone, I'm worried, so I sent someone to look for it."
As he spoke, he turned around and slapped the Japanese soldier who had stepped on Feng Yuhe before, and said angrily:
"Yaga! I asked you to find someone, who made you disrespectful to Boss Feng?! ”
The Japanese soldier was slapped in the face, straightened up and shouted "Hayi".
Feng Yuhe hurriedly stopped Ono Taro and said in a loud voice:
"It's all a misunderstanding, Ono-kun, it's all a misunderstanding, don't blame them."
Ono took a step back, stood up straight and bowed to Feng Yuhe:
"Boss Feng, I'm sorry, I apologize to you for the reckless behavior of my soldiers!"
Feng Yuhe waved his hand again and again at a loss:
"No, no, no, Ono-kun, no apologies, no apologies."
Liu Cheng squinted at Ono's "performance", and his pupils shrank.
Li Min's worries are not wrong, but Liu Cheng's approach is not wrong either.
Compared with his understanding of the Japanese, Li Min naturally couldn't catch up with Liu Cheng.
Although Liu Cheng has only seen Ono once, he can be sure that Ono will definitely not be angry with the people because of this incident.
At least, not now.
Liu Cheng could see that this Ono Taro was an ambitious person, and he would never affect his future for the sake of a Miki.
Japan's policy at that time was to turn the Northeast into its own long-term colony, so the order prohibited the slaughter of the people, and the Battle of Jiangqiao had just ended, although Lao Ma failed to stop the pace of Japanese invasion, but the number of Japanese troops at that time was only more than 20,000 people, and in the face of this northeast, which was about four times larger than the Japanese mainland, it was still a little weak-hearted.
Even their emperor did not expect to be able to take Tohoku so easily.
However, despite this, after all, the foothold is not stable now, and once it arouses the resentment of the people, it will be an extremely troublesome matter for Japan.
Although this Ono Taro seems to be calm on the surface, he is actually very ambitious, and he will never cause trouble by killing innocents indiscriminately at this time.
Liu Cheng calculated this point accurately and dared to attack Miki.
The reason why Ono was so polite to Feng Yuhe, in addition to the reason for food, there was also a more important reason for Feng Yuhe's influence in the rock.
Since Ono's troops were stationed in Panshi, there has always been no shortage of traitors and lackeys, but those are all gangsters who have no status, and it is okay to bite people everywhere like dogs on weekdays, and there is no other role at all.
But Feng Yuhe is not.
Panshi Prefecture is small, but it has a wide range of buying and selling shops, and if Ono wants to completely control Panshi, he must make all these people obey him.
Even if he can force these people into obedience by some forceful or even coercive means, there must be someone of some prestige to take the lead.
In his eyes, Feng Yuhe is the best candidate.
