Chapter Ninety-Four: Building Roads

According to the information obtained by the top level of the Manchuria Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China, in the short period of more than two years since the Japanese occupied Northeast China, the Japanese Kwantung Army obtained about 20,000 war horses from Kwantung Prefecture, from Mengdong and the three eastern provinces, that is, Manchukuo at present. These horses provided support for the further realization of the combat capability of the Kwantung Army from one side. According to intelligence, while the Japanese Kwantung Army was extremely cruel in plundering the resources of the occupied areas, it further intensified its seizure of private capital and spared no effort to carry out all-round large-scale and shameless plundering through various means. The Japanese were clearly preparing for a war of aggression on a larger scale. The plan of the opening of the Japanese Kwantung Army was supposed to revolve around preparing for a future war.

On that day, Jing Zhiguo went to Jing Jixing's house in Jingjiagou and asked in detail about the attack on Tiedan. According to Shi Lei's account of Qian Zhong's account of Wang Chun's case, the four Japanese that Qian Zhong saw and the four Japanese seen by Jing Jixing's son Tie Dan in Jingjiagou were very likely to be the same group of people. It should be Qian Zhong who saw the Japanese first, and Tie Dan who saw the Japanese who came later. In other words, the Japanese went to the Dongdian Mountains, stepped on it for a while, and then went to the Jingjiagou area for a while. Jing Zhiguo analyzed that these four people should be wandering around for a certain task. Judging from the analysis of the characteristics of the actions of these four Japanese, it is likely that they are not doing surveying and mapping, but choosing a location for something. Could this be an aspect of the Japanese Kwantung Army's plan to open the mountain?

Thinking about it like this, Jing Zhiguo felt a chill in the back of his neck, and a cold air hit his heart. If Wang Chun was killed because he learned a certain detail of the Japanese Kwantung Army's plan to open the mountain, then the iron egg inadvertently bumped into that group of Japanese, and it was possible to invite death. Jing Zhiguo analyzed that it should be that the Japanese first discovered that someone was following him, and then a Japanese went around behind Tiedan, intending to attack Tiedan, not wanting to be encountered by the Cigou man surnamed Bai, so he attacked first from the side. The Japanese were attacked, will they give up? But a few days have passed since this incident, and I haven't heard any bad news from Jingjiagou.

Jing Zhiguo wanted to call Jing Zhiyi's house, originally to remind Jing Zhiyi that he should pay special attention to the movements around Jingjiagou in this paragraph, and specially told Jing Zhiyi to tell Tie Dan's mother and Tie Dan again, and not to go to the mountain again. But at this moment, Jing Zhiyi called from Jingjiagou, saying that the Japanese wanted to build a road for the mountainous area of Qinxian in order to make it convenient for the peasants in the mountainous areas of Manchukuo to travel, and said that there were two main ones, one was from the county seat of Qinxian County, that is, Qinzhuang to Jingjiagou, and the other was from Gaotai Station to Jingjiagou. These two highways converge at Jingjiagou. Jing Zhiyi said on the phone, the Japanese said, this is preliminary, after the repair of these two roads, it will be repaired from Jingjiagou to the east mountain, saying that it will go to the big pear tree, and it will go further east, anyway, Jingjiagou is not the end of this highway. It is said that the county office has summoned the security chiefs of all villages to hold a meeting, and they will gather migrant workers in the villages along the line to build roads. When the county bureau held a meeting with the chief of the village, he said that it was the time of the cat winter, and he stayed at home, and this road was built for the good of the people in our mountainous area, and he would pay the wages, what a good thing!

I went to Qinzhuang, and I was tired enough to choke Jing Jifu, and he was sixty-five years old, if he was according to the countryman's algorithm for age, it would already be sixty-six, of course, this is a virtual age. When he got home, Jing Jifu asked Jing Zhiyi to call Jing Zhiguo quickly, and at the same time he was crooked on the kang, and he felt tired that he had never been there. When Jing Zhiyi and Jing Zhiguo's phone call was about to be finished, Jing Jifu shouted on the side:

"Don't hang up after speaking, let's say a few more words to Guozi!"

Jing Jifu said to Jing Zhiguo what Jing Zhiguo said, it really made Jing Zhiguo a little surprised, Jing Jifu said to Jing Zhiguo on the phone, the uncle is too old, the whole is an old man, at this moment, the Japanese want to recruit migrant workers to build roads, our old bones are really a little unbearable, I want to discuss with Guozi, see if we don't do it. Jing Zhiguo listened to it on the phone and pondered for a while, too! I'm sixty-five years old, I'm sixty-six years old, I've been busy all my life, it's time to rest! But you yourself proposed to rest, so who will do the chief of Jingjiagou? If you want to quit like this, the county office will say that the Japanese may not be able to pass the test. This road is about to be built, and at this juncture, you don't want to do it! You want to rest! Rest! You can do whatever you want? Who are you? If this Japanese really asks such a question, it is really difficult to answer. Thinking about it this way, Jing Zhiguo said to Jing Jifu on the phone:

"Uncle, according to our opinion, at this time, you should not mention this matter. Now it's the world of the Japanese, and we're getting old, so we can't compete with them. The matter of the security chief, you are still in charge for the time being, if there is anything that needs to be done by the security chief, you will let our eldest brother help you run! If you quit now, the Japanese might think that you don't support them in building roads, so don't find you for anything, then it will be troublesome! ”

It may be that Jing Jifu felt that Jing Zhiguo was reasonable, and he was speechless on the other end of the phone for a long time, and finally said:

"Guozi, uncle is not bad! I felt very tired and panicked at this time, I really didn't want to do it, and I really couldn't do it. You say we can do it! I'm tired enough here, and I have to let the people in our ditch gouge us with their eyes, and I can't scold us! ”

Jing Zhiguo thought that what the uncle said was the truth. Say:

"Alas! Uncle, scold and scold! Didn't we do anything lacking in morality! We are worthy of our ancestors, worthy of our Jingjiagou, if we want to see, that's it! ”

Jing Jifu pondered, too!

Putting down the phone, the first thing Jing Zhiguo said in his heart was that the Japanese began to act. According to general speculation, the Japanese are looking left and right near Jingjia, touching left and right, and now they are going to build roads in this area of Jingjiagou, ah! The previous touching was to build a road! So did the Japanese go to the mountains of Dongdian Mountain to build a road for Dongdian Mountain? Dongdian Mountain is a place to play and watch the scenery, it should be said that there should be a road, and the four Japanese went to Dongdian Mountain to touch it not to build any roads. In this way, those four Japanese went to our Jingjiagou to touch, and after the touching, they built a road for Jingjiagou, which is probably not the ultimate goal!

The day after Jing Zhiyi called Jing Zhiguo, a group of soldiers from the Japanese Kwantung Army garrison drove into Jingjiagou.
