Chapter 4 Honors (VIA)

Listen to the disdainful laughter around you. One by one, the puppet soldiers hung their heads on their waists. I can't wait to find an ant hole under my feet to get into. But shame is shame." Shame is close to courage". It will never happen to the puppet army. After the 918 Incident. All the soldiers in the three northeastern provinces who are a little bloody. Either follow General Ma Zhanshan and raise his gun. repeatedly fought with little devils in Qiqihar, Duolun and other places; Either join the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation. Together with Yang Jingyu and General Zhou Baozhong. dyed the white mountains and black waters that raised him red with blood; Or like Redbeard. Separated from the brigade. simply occupy the hill and fight guerrillas. I'd rather die than bow my knees to the little devil. And those who do not hesitate to directly change the door to the little devils. It's basically all soft bones. Coward. There is no man's temperament in his body at all.

And the Japanese invaders who were the masters of the puppet army. I still don't dare to be completely relieved of these traitors who have milk and are mothers. And not only in terms of establishment and armament. Try to deduct the cut. They also often look for various excuses to screen the puppet army. Once someone is found to be behaving deferentially enough. Immediately cut off by spicy hands. Especially in the spring of 1936. It was named "Tongsu". Ling Sheng, the governor of the puppet northern branch of Xing'an, was arrested and executed. And then bloodied the entire North Hung Yen Garrison Command. caused the whole of Manchukuo to be silent. From then on, he never dared to express the slightest objection to the orders of the Japanese.

So many years of reverse elimination. The guy who remains in the ranks of the puppet army and continues to eat food. It's all servile. Just encounter the slightest danger. The first thing that comes to mind is how to save your life. Count on them to take up arms to defend the honor of the servicemen . It's tantamount to a fool's dream.(Note 1)

"Little Chief, I don't know." I laughed with a shy face and laughed with everyone for a while. The big leader of the puppet army bowed again to Captain Zhao of the guerrillas. Added: "General Guo of our Hung Yen Garrison Command. Always been very kind to the eight roads. He always instructs us on weekdays. Everyone has come to this point because of the situation. There should be no more cannibalism. If you accidentally encounter your department. Can raise the muzzle of the gun by half an inch. Just try to raise it half an inch. Leave room for each other. It's good to ........ in the future."

In order to escape punishment. He's full of tongues. Regardless of the credentials. It's still hearsay. Dare to pour anything out. Captain Zhao of the guerrillas listened to it, although he would not believe it. The look on his face softened even more. In fact. Before departure. Captain Wang Hong also told him in private. If you meet a puppet army. It is possible to act cheaply depending on the performance of the other party. There's no need to kill them all. Come to think of it. The young cavalry captain swung his saber slightly. Interrupted with a smile: "Okay. Put away your nonsense. The muzzle of the gun is raised by half an inch. If you have two crooked handles in your hands today. Wouldn't you have given the order to shoot at us?"

"Don't dare. Don't dare." The big leader of the puppet army reached out and scratched his wet hair. Laugh and laugh." Even with crooked handles. The small ones will also shoot into the sky. It's true. I can swear if I don't believe me."

"Liar." Captain Zhao pursed his lips and sneered. Fought for so many years. He knows very well what kind of virtue the puppet army is. The reason why these guys took the initiative to lay down their arms today. It's all because of the disparity in strength between the two sides. Plain neglect of training. And there are no puppet soldiers armed with machine guns. There is no way to stop the surprise attack of the war horses. And once rushed to a distance of 100 meters by the cavalry of the guerrillas. What awaits the puppet army is a one-sided slaughter. Although the total number of them. More than twice as many partisan cavalry .

"I can leave you twenty rifles." Don't want to waste too much time on the puppet army. After laughing. The young Captain Zhao continued: "But ......"

"Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir.. The great kindness of the sir. I'll wait for ..... toothless" didn't wait for him to finish. Several small leaders of the puppet army immediately bowed down to thank them. It's as if you've just escaped from the ghost gate. Everyone's face was full of rejoicing.

"Shut up." The young Captain Zhao had to shout. Interrupted the trembling of the leaders of the puppet army." Hear me out. Twenty guns left for you. But you can't stay in vain. Didn't you just say that? It can be ransomed for money. Let's follow the recent black market quotes. Eighty pieces of ocean each. A total of one thousand sixteen. For the sake of your performance. I'll be in charge of giving you another 20% discount."

"We. . We ......." The leader of the puppet army, who held the highest position here, immediately grimaced. Cry out for mercy." We. We really can't come up with that much money. Little sir, you don't know anything. The Japanese paid us very little. And never in full."

"Then I don't care. I'll just see the money shipped. So be it. You guys get together first. How much money can be taken out. Take as many rifles as you want. Both Ocean and Manchukuo bonds are available. I don't pick." Captain Xiao Zhao put on a businesslike appearance. Turn your head sideways to the side. No more performances by puppet army leaders.

This is what he usually learned from Zhang Fatzi. None of the guerrillas knew how to do business. But since the fat man opened the market to the edge of the crescent lake. Many young people have acquired a new set of skills. Haggle up. All baht must be compared. And there is already a faint trend that the blue is better than the blue. left Zhang Songling, the master, far behind.

"I. We ...... "The big boss of the puppet army doesn't know that he can pay back the money on the ground. I had to return to my team to raise money with a sad face. Got all the money extorted today. Along with the private money of each puppet army. I made up more than 500 yuan. It's only enough to redeem six or seven guns. There's no way to go back and talk to the devil advisors.

Wrap your jacket in a sea and a puppet Manchukuo ticket that has just been raised. Several big and small leaders came to the guerrillas again. Wagging his tail and begging for mercy." Father. ZHAO Ye. You're good to go. Okay, okay. Raise your hand again. Lift it up. We're really poor soldiers. I really can't come up with any money."

"Shhhh As if irritated by their attitude. Captain Zhao frowned. The saber in his hand is slowly raised. Several of the leaders were scared out of their minds." Poof. They all knelt on the ground. While crying. Kowtow while along." We. We didn't resist. You guys. Aren't you eight paths giving preferential treatment to captives? We hear the sound of horses' hooves. I took the initiative to hand it over and rob it. You guys. You can't just leave it at all."

"Stand up for me. I didn't say I'm going to kill you." Captain Xiao Zhao was so angry by the appearance of the puppet army that he couldn't cry or laugh. Quickly put away the saber. Loud commands.

The leaders of the puppet army did not dare to disobey. Trembling to his feet. Put down the silver dollar. Staggering towards his own team. See them half-dead. Captain Xiao Zhao seemed to have a soft heart. Thought about it. Then he cried out, "Stop. So be it. I don't have to take the rest of the money. Let you hang up first."

"Thank you, Master Zhao. Thank you, Zhao Ye." Several puppet army leaders immediately turned around. I can't even bother to wipe the snot on my face. Bow and bow.

"Which boss borrowed me a piece of paper. Let them make IOUs." Captain Xiao Zhao quickly turned his head to the vendors. Smile and ask.

The vendors are having fun watching the puppet army show. I heard the commander of the partisan unit borrowing paper from himself. Say yes right away. The paper and pens used to sign the contract were quickly dedicated. The leader of the puppet army with the highest official position wants to bargain again. so as not to fall into the hands of the partisans . However, I saw Captain Zhao's hand slowly holding the handle of the knife. The thought of luck vanished immediately. Tremblingly, he took the pen and paper from the hands of the vendors. Write the IOU tremblingly. Finally. Thought about it. He carefully signed his real name. JIA Shouyi.

"Gotta let him press his handprints. Gotta press the handprint. If you don't press your handprints. The IOU is invalid." Among the caravans. A few particularly daring guys shouted for a reminder.

Jia Shouyi, the leader of the puppet army, knew that he couldn't get away with it. I had to borrow the ink from the vendor. Dip your thumb up. I printed my name hard. This is down. The whole IOU is completely perfected. If the guerrillas want to clean up this puppet army leader in the future. Just send this IOU to the devil. Naturally, someone will come forward to take military discipline seriously.

But Captain Xiao Zhao is still not satisfied. He pointed at several other puppet leaders. Loud command: "Sign your names too. Press the mudra. This money can't be counted as owed by Lao Jia alone. You'll have to pay it back with him in the future."

"Ahh The little leader of the puppet army, who was secretly rejoicing in his heart, was stunned. Immediately shouted loudly." Sir. We're all Captain Jia's men. Peacetime. He's the only one on the team."

"Sir, let you sign. Sign it. Come on. Don't waste the chief's time." After all, he is the captain. Jia Shouyi quickly understood Xiao Zhao's good intentions. Shoved the pen into the hands of several subordinates. Be proactive and start doing work.

"Sir. Sir. This thing. It's not appropriate. It's really not suitable. A few of us. How can you be qualified to ....." The little bosses made bitter faces. Make excuses out loud.

Don't wait for the guerrilla leader Xiao Zhao to speak. Jia Shouyi, the big leader of the puppet army, has turned his face. Glared at a few of his subordinates. Shouted: "How inappropriate. Do you still want to go back and ask the Japanese for success? Think beautifully. A few of us from now on. It's a grasshopper on a rope. Can't run away from Lao Tzu. You don't want to keep jumping."

Note 1: After the Japanese established the puppet state of Manchukuo with Pu Yi as a puppet. In order to prevent other puppet armies from faking surrender and cheating weapons like General Ma Zhanshan, and then rebelling. The puppet army under his command was "reorganized" many times, and each regiment was reduced to the standard of 600 men. And it is rarely equipped with artillery.In 1936, through the Lingsheng incident, the upper echelons of the puppet Xing'an Garrison Command were bloodied.

Note 2: General Guo. Guo Wenlin, chief of staff of the puppet Xing'an Army. Daur people. Famous traitor. This person believes in a philosophy of survival. In the Normenheim affair. Knowing that there are puppet troops under his command who are ready to surrender to the Soviets. But deliberately pretending to be confused. Neither blocks. I don't report to the Japanese devils either. In the summer of 1945. It was discovered that the devil was facing defeat. Decisively launched a mutiny. led his puppet army to the Soviet army. For the smooth march of the Soviet army into the northeast to eliminate the Kwantung Army. In 1950, he was extradited back to China as a war criminal, and ten years after being pardoned, he died of illness in the hospital.
