Chapter Eighty-Four: It's Time to Pay Your Debts!
Although there were a large number of defenders in the city, as the reconnaissance battalion personally captured the Japanese command post set up in the city, the artillery position of even the little devils was raided by a reconnaissance company, and all the positional artillery was captured.

In the face of a large number of Eighth Route Army troops that suddenly appeared in the city, many Manchurian troops and the puppet army in the city were caught off guard. As for the Japanese troops stationed in the city, they were also blocked in the barracks and were not allowed to enter or leave.
Compared with the puppet army, it didn't take long for them to surrender to the Eighth Route Army one after another. Looking at those puppet soldiers with red silk scarves tied to their arms, no matter how stupid they are, they know that some of them have defected to the Eighth Route Army, and they are the ones who opened the city gate to let the Eighth Route Army enter the city.
As for the Manchurian Army, which was also blocked in the barracks, although it resisted stubbornly, it was also defeated in the face of the attack of the reconnaissance group. Several officers who stayed in the city also eagerly hoped that their regimental headquarters would rush back to the town as soon as possible to command the battle.
Even if they had to surrender to the Eighth Route Army, such an order should not be at their disposal. If you really want to surrender to the Eighth Route Army, if you want to come to their families in Fengtian, I am afraid that they will be poisoned by the little devils. It is this threat that makes them afraid to surrender easily.
It didn't take long for Li Yipin, who was escorted from Dingxianglou to the front of the barracks, looked at the troops in front of the barracks who had suffered heavy casualties, sighed that the attack of the Eighth Route Army was really sharp, and quickly shouted to the subordinates in the camp to let them put down their weapons.
Seeing that the regiment commanders were all captured by the Eighth Route Army, the Manchurian Army, which didn't really want to fight, put down their arms very happily. Next, if the Japanese army wants to liquidate, presumably their families can also be preserved.
After all, the order to surrender to the Eighth Route Army was given by Li Yipin, the regiment commander. They're following orders!
Looking at the Manchurian Army, who threw their weapons in the designated area and began to accept the seizure of the Eighth Route Army, the regiment commander who carried out the combat mission also said in a timely manner: "Okay, take this waste down, and then hand it over to the Political Work Department for interrogation." ā
Hearing this, Li Yipin was shocked and said, "This sir, didn't your regiment commander say that as long as I cooperate with your persuasion, he will spare my life?" Why do you still need to be interrogated? ā
'Did I say I was going to kill you?' However, as the main commander of the Manchurian Army, I believe that you have also committed many crimes. As for whether you can live, it depends on the next public trial. If the people are very angry, the king of heaven will not be able to save you.
In addition, I have heard people say that you fat man has not been in the city for long, but you have a hand in collecting money. If you are interested, spit out your corrupt people's fat and people's anointment, and perhaps the crime can be mitigated to a certain extent.
As for our policy, leave the person in charge of the interrogation, and it will be announced to you as well. Of course, you don't have to worry too much, under normal circumstances, our political work cadres will not use lynching. If you don't tell the problem honestly, then you can't guarantee it! ā
After another intimidation, Li Yipin also knew about the money he had embezzled during this time, and he was afraid that he had made a wedding dress for the Eighth Route Army. It's just that in this situation, Li Yipin still hopes to save this little life.
It's just that if Li Yipin knew that people like him would be able to pick up a small life. For the rest of his life in the future, I am afraid that he will also spend the rest of his life in the labor reform farm of the Eighth Route Army. The taste of being forced to re-enter labor is not too pleasant to think about!
Being alive sometimes does not necessarily mean being comfortable, at least a regimental-level officer like Li Yipin, if he wants to gain real freedom in the future, he can only wait for the founding of the country to see if the government will decide to amnesty a group of people.
As the gunfire in the city gradually subsided, the reconnaissance group that entered the city also began to take over the barracks and material warehouses of the Japanese puppet army in the city. In short, the property and things belonging to the Japanese puppet army have all become trophies of the Eighth Route Army at this moment.
On the other hand, Head Zhou, who was enjoying the feast of Dingxianglou at the moment, looked at the expressions of the guests who were a little unate, and pretended to be surprised: "What? Is the food in the restaurant not to your taste? Or do you need a drink to celebrate? ā
In the face of such inquiries, the guests present really did not know what to say. But someone still got up and said, "Sir, the situation in the city is unclear at the moment, can I wait until I go home to see my wife and children?" ā
'Worried about your family?' Rest assured, as long as you stay here, I'm sure your family will be fine. If you walk out of this restaurant at this time, it may be very dangerous.
You must know that there are a lot of devils and some hardcore traitors in the city, and it will naturally take a little time for my troops to encircle and suppress these people. When the situation in the city is stable, I will naturally send someone to send you back. ā
A faint remark made the restless crowd wait patiently. Not long after, an Eighth Route Army soldier walked into the restaurant and reported to Commander Zhou that the situation in the city was under control, and informed him that the clean-up work was almost complete.
Hearing this, Regiment Commander Zhou nodded and said, "Okay, order the troops to strengthen their vigilance and send more patrols to the streets to be on duty." As for tonight, Hiraizumi City still enforces a curfew policy, and those who do not have a pass are not allowed to go to the streets casually. ā
'Yes, Captain! ā
After saluting, the commander of the reconnaissance company who reported quickly walked out of the restaurant again. And when he reported earlier, everyone in the banquet hall heard it clearly. Some of those who still had illusions quickly collapsed in their seats.
His family knows his own affairs, and he works faithfully for the little devil in the city on weekdays, and serves as an official of the puppet government. These people, their results are already doomed, that is, waiting for the subsequent public trial, and the anger of the people will definitely not escape death.
On the other hand, if you invite the shopkeeper of Dingxiang Building tonight, as long as there are no big evil deeds, they don't have to worry too much. As for their shops, the Eighth Route Army will not raid them easily, and will also ensure the safety of their property.
Of course, even if it has something to do with the little devils, a store like Dingxianglou, which specializes in collecting money for the little devils, is also in the policy of the Eighth Route Army. In the future, it will be auctioned or used for other purposes at an appropriate time.
Regarding these policies, Head Zhou is naturally clear. Seeing that everyone didn't seem to have much appetite, he said again: "Captain Xu, I believe I haven't eaten such a sumptuous meal for a long time, right?" ā
'Yes! In the past, I was very satisfied to be able to eat a hot meal. I haven't tasted such a big fish and meat for many years. I have to say, this restaurant is really good! ā
After replying with a smile, Regiment Commander Zhou also said in a timely manner: "Captain Xu, according to the order of our division commander, before the working group dispatched by the headquarters arrives at Pingquan to form a democratic government, Pingquan's civil affairs will be managed by you temporarily, is there a problem?" ā
'No problem! However, if I can, in the future, I hope to join the main force and continue to fight the little devils with the troops. To be honest, dealing with civil affairs is not what I am good at! ā
I'll pass on your request to the division commander later. This time, you and your guerrilla brigade have also made great contributions. As long as the officers and men who meet the requirements are willing to join the main force, we will give priority to them.
As for other officers and soldiers who do not meet the requirements, you can also ask whether they are willing to retire from the army and return home to work as farmers, or whether they are willing to engage in other corresponding civil security work. Join the garrison, or serve as a military instructor in the township? ā
'Okay, I'll take care of this as soon as possible!' ā
After the two of them discussed these things as if no one was around, Commander Zhou, who was also well-fed, got up and said, "Since the division commander has decided, the civil affairs of Pingquan will be temporarily handed over to you to be in charge.
Then then, how to deal with these people is also up to you. Wait a minute, I will let the third battalion cooperate with you on the mission, if anyone dares to resist, I believe I don't need to say anything more, you know what to do?
I have only one opinion, if you usually do good deeds and accumulate virtue, and the people are not very angry, they can be given a certain exemption. As for those who are determined to work for the little devils and have the blood of the people on their hands, then let them pay for their blood debts.
As for their family members, after their property is confiscated, they are given a certain amount of living funds and let them go or stay. If it is necessary to carry out the execution, it must be announced through a public trial, understand? ā
'Understood! Please rest assured, Head Zhou, I will definitely handle this matter properly! ā
As the captain of the Pingquan guerrillas, Xu Ding stayed in Pingquan for so long, and he naturally knew the blood debt owed to the people by those people. Most importantly, some of them have also cooperated with the little devils to fight against the guerrillas.
Once upon a time, those comrades who fought side by side with Xu Ding, there were also countless people who fell under the guns of the little devils and these traitors. Now that the main force has recovered Pingquan City, and even handed over the matter to him, it is also a trust in him.
On the other hand, a large number of people in the banquet hall were crying and sad at the moment, and some of them even sat on the ground in fright by Xu Ding's look. I think these people also know that if they fall into the hands of Xu Ding, they will shed their skin if they don't die!
In recent years, the guerrillas have carried out rape operations in Pingquan, and these people are naturally well aware of it. It can be said that Xu Ding's lethality in the eyes of these people is no less than that of a little devil!
Seeing that Commander Zhou, who came to the restaurant for a meal and announced some policies of the Eighth Route Army, finally left the restaurant calmly. The rest of the people who stayed in the living room could only look at Xu Ding, hoping to escape.
It's a pity that at this moment, there is a reconnaissance battalion to cooperate with Xu Ding, and he also said calmly: "Ladies and gentlemen, there is an old saying that 'good is rewarded with good, and evil is rewarded with evil, and if you don't report it from time to time, the time has not yet come!'" Today, the time has come for you to pay the blood debt. ā
As these words were uttered, those who were puppet government officials immediately began to cry and beg for mercy. For these people, Xu Ding said without saying a word: "Come on, pull them down, send someone to confiscate their property, and temporarily imprison them pending public trial!" ā
With Xu Ding's order issued, the soldiers of the reconnaissance company who had already controlled the restaurant quickly controlled these people who collapsed to the ground or begged for mercy in pairs and dragged them away.
Many people who witnessed this scene also had a kind of sadness about the death of a rabbit and a fox. But in this case, no one dares to intercede for them. After all, they all know that these people who were dragged away by the Eighth Route Army are usually the masters of dogs and people in the city! (To be continued.) )
