Chapter 61: Go to Mayor Zhao
"Looking for Mayor Zhao?" The puppet army took the cigarette but still looked at Hu Fei with a suspicious face, "What's the matter with Mayor Zhao?" Don't you know that there is martial law on the street now? Run around the streets, beware of arresting you as a volunteer and shooting! ”
"Yes, yes, we were negligent. A few of our brothers just came from Haicheng, and the eldest prince over there has something important to do with Mayor Zhao, otherwise why would we be in such a hurry? That's okay, the brothers are busy, we'll see you later! ”
The cigarette went out, Hu Fei waved his hand and was about to say goodbye when he was stopped again, and a puppet soldier came over and handed him a piece of hard paper. The piece of paper the size of a cigarette box is printed with the words "pass". It turns out that this is the reason for walking around the city today!
A pack of cigarettes for a pass, this is a good deal. When I met the devil puppet army blocking the road again, I took out the pass and shook it in front, and the one who blocked the road was immediately released, and Hu Fei and the three of them went all the way unimpeded!
Zhao Zhiqiang, the mayor of Niuzhuang, lives in the town office, Niu Jingui, the former mayor of Niuzhuang, and the mayor of Zhao has been living in the house of his relative Zhao Shoufu. Zhao Shoufu's home is very easy to find, surrounded by three turrets, and the big mansion in the middle of the finished glyph is where Mayor Zhao is now staying.
Far away, I saw the three tall turrets. When Hu Fei attacked Niuzhuang for the first time, Gu Zhaoxiang led reinforcements before he reached the turret, and the only one who had launched an attack on these three turrets at that time was the cavalry led by Sun Laoliu, otherwise how could the cavalry lose so much?
What do these three turrets look like, Hu Fei hasn't walked up to him to take a closer look. Now that I have this pass in my hand, it's time to scout nearby!
The turret resembles three large round chimneys, only much thicker than the chimneys. There are shooting holes around it, and on top of it are battlements like city walls. From a distance, you can see the devils standing guard with guns on the turret. Barbed wire is pulled under the turret, and pedestrians are not allowed to approach. There are puppet soldiers patrolling the barbed wire.
If you want to break through the defense of these three turrets, unless the three-way volunteers from Shaling are all over, otherwise, it will be in vain for Hu Fei and these hundreds of people to come! Even if Gu Zhaoxiang didn't come last time, Hu Fei couldn't break through the defense line formed by these three turrets!
Hu Fei was not afraid of checking with a pass in his hand, and walked along the road to the checkpoint between the two turrets, this card was a devil with four puppet soldiers, a total of five people were checking pedestrians. Most of the people who pass by here are the people in the big mansion in the middle.
Zhao Shoufu's family is so big, the long-term workers, short-term workers, cooks, and old mothers in the family are probably hundreds, and these people are usually not allowed to go out to buy groceries and shop? Outside vendors selling firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, are sometimes not allowed to deliver to their homes? Therefore, although there are not many people passing through these cards, they are scattered and continuous.
Hu Fei took the pass and passed through this checkpoint smoothly, and the big mansion of Zhao Shoufu's family was in front of him.
Hey? Hu Fei just wanted to walk forward, but a group of people next to Zhao's house attracted his attention. It was a group of ordinary people who were blocked there by a few devils.
Since the first time he came back to Niuzhuang, what Hu Fei has seen has always been a single devil with a few puppet soldiers, at most two, he has never seen three devils get together. There were five devils concentrated in this corner at once, which made him more curious.
Those people who were huddled together were wearing coarse cloth clothes and coarse cloth shoes, and at first glance they were the most ordinary low-level toiling people, why did the devil stop these people? Hu Fei deliberately slowed down his pace and squinted at the group of people.
There were about twenty ordinary people, five devils, and three people in black silk shirts standing with devils. This kind of collocation is very normal, usually, the devil is either a puppet army or a traitor, and it is normal for three traitors in black silk shirts to act as a translator for the devil next to him.
Hu Fei always felt that something was wrong, and his eyes swept over the faces of these people, and it fell on the face of one of the traitors, yo! This is not Zhao Zhiqiang, the mayor of Grange Terrace! Isn't this guy blessed at his relative's house? What did he run out for? Seeing the main owner, Hu Fei didn't plan to enter the mansion in front of him again. He came to find Zhao Zhiqiang, he was outside, why did he enter the hospital?
Hu Fei knows Zhao Zhiqiang, and Zhao Zhiqiang also knows him! In order to avoid being recognized, Hu Fei made a gesture to Sun Lao Liu and Feng Quan behind him, and the three of them avoided the gate and walked down a small road next to them. In a large family like Zhao Shoufu, long-term workers and subordinates generally do not go through the main gate, and they enter and exit the house through the small door next to the courtyard. Since there is this path that forks out on the way to the gate, it must be the path that leads to the small gate.
The trees on both sides of the path, the cool breeze and the chirping of birds make it a great place to hang out and take a stroll. However, Hu Fei is not in the mood to observe the picturesque scenery here. As soon as they walked into the path, they saw that no one was paying attention to them, and they immediately touched the location of the crowd over there under the cover of the trees. Zhao Zhiqiang is there, Hu Fei wants to take a good look at this old acquaintance.
Zhao Zhiqiang was also annoyed, he was just about to go out of Lu to go around the town today when he met Lu to see this! The two people next to him, those were his two bodyguards. As the three of them were walking out, they met five Japanese soldiers, who were escorting two dozen people with bayonets on the edge of the grove.
Those who walked back and forth on this road were all related to the Zhao family's compound. Although Zhao Zhiqiang is not the owner of this compound, he now lives in this courtyard after all. Besides, since the day he came here, his cousin Zhao Shoufu has treated him as the head of the family, and even handed over the key to the door to him, if there is something in the Zhao family, can he not care?
Zhao Zhiqiang sensed that the Japanese had bad intentions, so he came over and asked what these Japanese soldiers wanted to do? He didn't know whether this group of ordinary people was a descendant of the Zhao family, but since something happened at this gate, he, the actual head of the Zhao family, of course had to come out to ask about the situation.
One of the Japanese soldiers told him that they were searching for spies!
Japanese people have a rough temperament, and it is common to kill people on the street when they say something wrong. Don't look at Zhao Zhiqiang's somewhat unclear relationship with Koichiro Muto in Haicheng, he doesn't want to offend these Japanese soldiers who look like big bosses on the spot!
Fortunately, Wu Chang's Chinese was okay, and a few words made Zhao Zhiqiang understand the reason for the matter. It turned out that these 20 or so people were not the long-term and short-term workers and subordinates in the Zhao family's compound, they were the workers who repaired the turret, and they were part of the hundreds of people that Zhao Zhiqiang led the devil puppet army to capture from the town.
These people don't say they are working honestly, just last night they actually organized a large-scale escape! More than 200 workers ran away at once! When I got up in the morning, it was time to get to work, but no one came! Aso Kintaro sent devil soldiers to check, but found that there was no one in the shed!
