Last night, Sasaki returned to Songyang Town with his team, and was immediately scolded by Captain Guizuo, and at the same time, the originally thin face was flushed by several slaps from Guizuo, and at a cursory glance, it was much brighter than before.

It's just that Sasaki didn't dare to defend half a sentence. You must know that with the cooperation of Neiying, not only did he fail to catch those damn fugitive teachers and students, but also paid the price of killing and wounding eighteen imperial soldiers, and the result was only fifteen Zhina.

Of course, the five people lost by Captain Han who cooperated with his actions were negligible.

With such a bad record, even Sasaki himself felt ashamed.

After venting, Kamezuo gasped and said, "Sasaki, you stupid, you can't even catch a few powerless readers, and the faces of the imperial soldiers have made you lose all your ......"

After scolding angrily for a while, he calmed down the anger in his heart a little, and ordered Han Kui, who was trembling with fright, to immediately find out who was attacking the imperial army in Tuanshigou, and at the same time ordered the Japanese army to prepare for the closure of the mountain and pursuit.

As a local, Han Kui had to find clues from those dead Chinese, which was not very difficult, and by ten o'clock the next day, he had found out the identities of the five Chinese who had been killed.

Fortunately, among the people whose identities were found, there was no Fu Dazhuang.

However, as Han Kui's people dispatched, in the afternoon of the next day, seven or eight family members of the deceased were arrested and put into the Jiang family compound.

As for Kamezuo, after reporting to the captain about the failure of the operation last night, he was surprisingly not reprimanded by the captain. Captain Saburo Watanabe asked him to immediately command the troops in Matsuyo Town to continue the pursuit, and at the same time, the second squadron passing by Matsuyo Town was also transferred to cooperate with the Kamezuo squadron.

Watanabe's brigade has received orders to follow the main force of the wing to prepare for an attack on Linxian to the west.

Of course, the Watanabe Brigade was not the main force attacking Linxian, and the Guizuo Squadron was stationed in Songyang Town, and its main task was to ensure the logistics and transportation lines of the westward advancing troops.

With the addition of the second squadron, the strength in the turtle's left hand was strengthened. However, along with the second squadron, there was a young lieutenant named Ichiro Matsumoto, who took Watanabe's order and took over the command of the pursuing force.

After knowing that Ichiro Matsumoto was actually from the Beiping headquarters, Kamezao wisely chose to shut up.

At eight o'clock in the evening, Liu Tianshu and his entourage finally arrived at Shiqiao Village, several people stopped in a small forest in the south, Liu Tianshu quietly observed the quiet Shiqiao Village, until more than ten minutes later, he turned his head to Shi Qiang and Zhao Xiaomei and said: "Xiaomei, Shi Qiang, you stay here, I will go into the village to pick up Liu Hai and them." ”

Although everything seems to be normal in Shiqiao Village, Liu Tianshu still doesn't dare to be careless, after all, the little devil suffered a lot last night, if the little devil is really hard-hearted, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not find clues from the corpse brought back and chase here.

After all, Han Kui's people are all locals, and it is not impossible to find out the identity of the dead.

Zhao Xiaomei saw Liu Tianshu disappear into the night, and her heart couldn't help but hang.

As for Jiang Meijuan, Jiang Jinlong and Jiang Jinhu, their bodies were already trembling slightly with nervousness at this time.

Liu Tianshu carefully touched the opposite side of Liu's blacksmith's house, squatted in the grass and stared at the blacksmith shop for a while, and after confirming that the blacksmith shop that had been closed was not abnormal, he carefully touched the courtyard that showed the light.

Blacksmith Liu's wife died a few years ago, and there are only eighteen-year-old son Liu Hai and sixteen-year-old daughter Liu Juan.

It's just that Liu Tianshu is not sure that Liu Hai and Liu Juan know that their father is a communist.

Thinking of this, he reached out and touched the small copper lock hidden in his chest.

Seeing that there was no one around, Liu Tianshu went straight to the courtyard wall, then climbed the courtyard wall with both hands, carefully climbed up, listened for a while, and then jumped down gently.

At this moment, a sound of speech came from inside the house.

"Brother, why hasn't Daddy come back yet?" A crisp voice said carefully.

"Sister, don't worry, Dad will be back soon, you go to sleep first, I'll clean up these." The sound of bangs sounded muffledly.

"Brother, I heard someone say today that last night in Tuanshigou, someone fought with the devil and killed a lot of people. I saw Jin Yang today, and his father hasn't come back yet. Liu Juan's worried voice sounded again.

"Don't think about it, Daddy will be fine." Bangs should have glared at his sister, because the tone of the words was a little raised.

Liu Tianshu walked to the door lightly, raised his hand and knocked a few times, the sound in the house stopped, and as the door opened, the short body of bangs appeared in front of him.

"Is that you?" Seeing that the person standing in front of him was Liu Tianshu, who came to find his father a few days ago, Liu Hai couldn't help but ask in surprise.

"It's me, your father asked me to come in, go in and talk." Liu Tianshu nodded, and walked inside as he spoke.

"What about my father, why hasn't he come back yet?" Seeing Liu Tianshu entering the house, Liu Juan walked over in one step, looked at him and asked nervously.

"Liu Hai, Liu Juan, your father can't come back because of something, he asked me to pick you up and leave here to meet him, this is the copper lock he gave me." Thinking of the urgency of time, Liu Tianshu said directly.

When Liu Hai heard this, he was shocked, and then turned his gaze to the copper lock handed by Liu Tianshu. Liu Hai only glanced at it and was sure that it was his father's thing, because in the past, his father would take out this copper lock when he asked someone to bring a message or let someone inform Liu Hai to do something.

Liu Hai took the copper lock, looked at the house with some nostalgia, and said uneasily: "My father really asked me and my sister to go to meet him?" ”

"Yes, in addition, Fu Jinyang's father died last night, and your father asked us to take him away with him. Bangs, I know you can't leave here, but the little devils could come at any time, and we have to hurry. Liu Tianshu looked at Liu Hai and Liu Juan, and said a little anxiously.

If Han Kui's people found out Fu Dazhuang's identity, they could rush to Shiqiao Village at any time, and Blacksmith Liu knew that he would soon be exposed, so he asked Liu Hai and Liu Juan to evacuate quickly, which was his only choice.

Fortunately, Liu Tianshu participated in this operation, otherwise, he really couldn't find a suitable person to deal with this matter.

After all, as a party member, he knows that the top priority is to send those teachers and students to Shanxi safely, and as for his children, if he really can't take care of them, then there is no way.

Liu Hai's face changed a few times, and finally he gritted his teeth, looked at Liu Tianshu and said, "Okay, Brother Tianshu, let's listen to you, clean up and leave." ”

"Hurry up, bangs, only pick up important things, you don't need to bring anything else, the enemy may come at any time." Liu Tianshu urged.

Liu Hai knew that he was going to call Fu Jinyang, so he asked his sister to pack up her things simply, and he ran towards Fu Jinyang's house quickly.

Liu Juan walked into the back room, and soon came out with two packages, Liu Tianshu took one and put it on his back, and as soon as the two walked out of the house, they saw Liu Hai and a short teenager running in.

The young man was also carrying a package on his shoulder.

After the three of them locked the door, they quickly walked out, and they were about to walk to a stone bridge in the village, when they saw a few lights coming in the distance.

"Quick, let's go this way, don't let them find out." Liu Tianshu immediately shouted in a low voice, and at the same time pulled out the gun at his waist and carried it in his hand.

Liu Hai has done a lot of things for the underground party with his father, and he still has experience in fighting the enemy. Hearing Liu Tianshu's words, he immediately knew that the person who came was not good, and whispered a word to follow me, and then led a few people to turn around and go into another path, cross the river from a small bridge, and enter the cornfield in the south.

After running to the small forest in the south and meeting with Shi Qiang and the others, Liu Tianshu immediately took them and hurriedly ran south on a moonlit night.

However, it was said that Han Kui came out of Guizuo's office and immediately led his subordinates to investigate the identities of these deceased, these people were all ordinary people, but they dared to attack the imperial army in Tuanshigou, it was definitely the Communist Party.

A few years ago, he led the militia and cooperated with the county security regiment and the people of the police station to search for the Communist Party in the vicinity of Songyang Town, and he had a deep understanding of the hard bones of these people.

However, he didn't expect that after so many years of searching, there would still be so many Communists lurking in the area of Songyang Town.

Fortunately, although these people were bloodstained by bullets, some of their faces were still recognizable, and after looking for someone to identify them in the middle of the night, they were still able to find out the identities of five of them.

So, as soon as the morning dawned, the entire surrounding Songyang Town became bloody, and Han Kui led his people around to arrest people like mad dogs.

The family members of those who died were caught in the Jiang family compound, and when they saw that their relatives had turned into cold corpses and were stained with blood, the cries of pain immediately resounded in the compound, and they were immediately suppressed by Han Kui's ferocious beatings.

After a full day of interrogation and investigation, Han Kui finally investigated the identities of all the deceased, and at the same time found out that one of the people who often interacted with these people was none other than Liu Blacksmith from Shiqiao Village.

Moreover, among the people who died, there was one Fu Dazhuang from Shiqiao Village.

Shiqiao Village is located on the main road to Linxian County, in order to ensure the logistical supply of the Japanese army attacking Linxian County, Guizuo has received an order to let a small group of Japanese troops enter Shiqiao Village.

So, after receiving Han Kui's report, Kamezuo simply ordered Sasaki's team to rush to Shiqiao Village overnight with Han Kui after completing the personnel replenishment, and arrested Liu Blacksmith and others.

Han Kui led people to Shiqiao Village, and under the guidance of a guide, he rushed straight to Liu Blacksmith's house, but who knew that he rushed into the courtyard, but it was General Tie who guarded the door.

Han Kui commanded his men to break down the door, and when they saw that everything was normal in the house, they immediately asked people to search it. After a while, one of his men reported that the ashes in the kitchen stove were still hot, and it was clear that the occupants of the house had not been gone for long.

Hearing this, Han Kui immediately asked one of his subordinates to take someone to Fu Dazhuang's house to have a look, and when he learned that Fu Dazhuang's house was also empty, he immediately understood that he was a step too late.

It's just that it's pitch black all around, and Han Kui can't tell which direction Blacksmith Liu fled from.

However, after the loss of more than a dozen backbones in Songyang Town, and the escape of Liu Blacksmith and others from Shiqiao Village, the strength of the Communist Party in this area must have been greatly weakened, which is not a good thing.
