Chapter 24 Headhunting
When Zhao Ziming was beheaded, Cheng Xuanzhu once wanted to pull out a gun to save people, but a pair of powerful hands grabbed his arm, and when he looked up, it was Ye Xuefeng.
Ye Xuefeng was wearing civilian clothes and a big hat, he shook his head slowly, signaling the bolt not to act rashly, the devil set up an ambush to take the bait for the heroes who robbed the law field, and a large team of people was arranged outside the city, even if a regiment of the Eighth Route Army was brought in, there was nothing to be done, not to mention Zhao Ziming, and many comrades-in-arms had to be killed.
Cheng Xuanzhu's eyes were so anxious that his eyes were on fire, and Ye Xuefeng said in a low voice: "Who will avenge him if you die?" ”
One sentence extinguished the flame of his impulsiveness, yes, the Japanese are in full battle, and now they are rushing forward to die together, and they are in the enemy's treacherous scheme, and those dog traitors who designed to trap Commander Zhao are about to get away with it, the bolt pillar let go of the handle of the gun hatefully, his eyes widened, remember the faces of everyone on the stage, he wants to take revenge, avenge his uncle!
Zhao Ziming's head was put into a basket and hung on the flagpole to show the public, the body was thrown into the field with a straw mat, several gentlemen in the county proposed to donate a coffin to bury the person, but Chen Dashao of Chen Guanzhuang disagreed, his father was killed by Zhao Ziming, the hatred of killing his father is not shared, he said that he wanted to let the wild dog eat the corpse of the bandit to relieve his hatred.
The people who watched the excitement dispersed in a hurry and went back to their homes.
That night, the moon was dark and the wind was high, and the cold wind blew like a knife, and several puppet soldiers who were guarding under the flagpole hid in the hut to roast the fire, and a puppet soldier came out to urinate, and by the way, he looked up and saw that his head was still there, and he had not lost it.
But when I looked at it again the next morning, the head in the basket had changed to Chen Dashao, and someone reported that the old Wang of the shaving shop had been killed, and his scalp had been removed, and his death was very miserable.
For a while, there was a rumor in the county, saying that Zhao Ziming's soul had come back for revenge, and Captain Hashimoto did not believe in evil and personally led people to investigate the case, but found nothing.
Returning to the station, the superior's commendation order arrived, and for his meritorious work in hunting down and killing anti-Japanese elements, Hashimoto Takayoshi was promoted to military police and given the power to mobilize the Nantai garrison.
……
At the garrison of the Eighth Route Army, Ye Wei was lying on the bed in confinement, and suddenly the door opened, but it was not Zhao Ziming who came in, but Ye Xuefeng.
"What about Ziming, didn't he come with you?" Ye Wei looked behind him, a little unwilling.
"Ziming has gone to Shanghai on a mission, and it won't be long before he comes back." Ye Xuefeng smiled reluctantly.
"I don't even care about my wife and children when I perform any task, really, this person has the most conscience." Ye Wei complained, but when he saw the little swaddling clothes lying beside him, he was in a good mood, "Be good, call uncle." ”
"The child is so well-behaved, he looks like Ziming, but his eyes are like you." Ye Xuefeng put a basket of eggs on the table, teased the child, and looked at his watch: "I have a meeting in the afternoon, let's go first, Doctor Bai, you take care of Xiao Ye." ”
"I'll send you." Bai Ling sent Ye Xuefeng out and asked in a low voice in the corridor, "How is it?" ”
Ye Xuefeng said: "I also sorted out his relics, except for a few clothes, there is nothing valuable, his family is in Beiping, and there is no way to report the funeral, do you think when Xiao Wei's mood will be able to stabilize?" ”
Bai Ling said: "The woman who is in confinement can't withstand the blow, and suddenly a bad news comes down, I'm afraid that she will leave the root of the disease, wait." ”
"That's all it can be." Ye Xuefeng took out a cigarette and wanted to light it, but he didn't wipe the match a few times, his hands were trembling, and when he thought of Ye Wei's orphan and widow in the future, his heart was like a knife.
"Zi Ming, he ......" A faint voice came, Ye Xuefeng and Bai Ling turned around, only to see Ye Wei standing holding the door, his lips were pale, his eyes were full of despair, and he was slowly sliding down.
Bai Ling hurriedly rushed over to support Ye Wei, and Ye Xuefeng explained in vain: "It's okay, Ziming is fine." ”
"I already heard it, Ziming left us and left." Ye Wei was surprisingly calm, not a single tear fell, but his eyes were hollow, and he looked even more worried.
Bai Ling helped her to the bed: "Xiao Wei, if you want to open up, people can't be resurrected after death, the child is still young, it's all counting on you, you can't fall down." ”
Ye Wei said: "I can bear it, there are many such things during the war, not one of them, it's okay, you are busy with you." ”
The more she is like this, the more sad everyone is, Ye Xuefeng said: "Xiao Wei, Ziming's father is my father-in-law, we have been friends for many years and are like brothers, from now on, I will take care of you two mothers." ”
Ye Wei just nodded lightly: "Thank you, Political Commissar Ye." ”
At this moment, she didn't know that Ye Xuefeng would never marry in the future, just to keep this promise.
……
Nantai County is still shrouded in terror, and the people who participated in the design of the capture of Zhao Ziming have died mysteriously one after another, and the deaths are worse than the other, even if they hide in the courtyard of the deep house, it is useless.
For this reason, Hashimoto Shaozo has a headache, but there is nothing to do, the other party is extremely witty, neat, like a cunning lone wolf, he has set up ambushes several times and has been seen through by the other party, and his every move seems to be in the control of the other party.
"He's not a wolf, he's more of a hunter, and I'm his ultimate prey." Hashimoto finally understood.
The gendarmerie is located in the courtyard of Nantai Old County, is a two-storey small building built in the 25th year of the Republic of China, after the Japanese army was stationed, it was redecorated with wooden floors and tatami mats, so that soldiers can feel a trace of hometown warmth in a foreign country.
Telephone lines were often cut off by guerrillas, and communication between South and North Thailand depended on signal soldiers, so Hashimoto wrote a warrant and pressed the bell on the table to call the orderlies in, but no one responded for a long time.
Hashimoto walked out impatiently, and found that his orderly Ono Jun was sitting in the corner with a knife and cutting something, his expression was extremely focused, as if he had forgotten everything in the world, and he was immediately furious, and scolded Baga, and the orderly hurriedly jumped up and saluted, hiding one hand behind him.
"Ono-kun, what are you holding in your hand?" Takayoshi Hashimoto frowned and shouted.
Gendarmerie First Class Private Ono Jun hesitated to take out a woodcut locomotive, unfinished, the craftsmanship is very good, it is said that this guy was a carpenter before joining the army, originally assigned to the infantry unit, and then somehow became a gendarme, Hashimoto once asked him, Ono-kun, why did you become a gendarme? He said that the infantry were only paid 8 yen and 80 yuan a month, and the military police had 100 yen a month, so of course they had to work hard to become a military policeman.
Takayoshi Hashimoto stepped on the locomotive under his feet, trampled it hard, and asked with a blue face: "Bastard, do you know the current grim situation, and you still have the leisure to engage in woodcarving!" ”
Ono Jun didn't dare to talk back, and couldn't stop nodding: "Hay, Hay." ”
The wooden train was trampled to pieces, and Takayoshi Hashimoto was still angry, and slapped Ono Jun four times in the face, beating him so that he staggered, but he still stood up straight: "Hai! ”
After losing his temper, Takayoshi Hashimoto continued to walk forward, suddenly remembered something, stopped and said, "Ono, I heard that your wife has been pregnant for a long time. ”
"Hai, I received a letter from home yesterday that my wife gave birth to a son." Junshi Ono, who had a blue nose and swollen face, was actually full of happiness on his face.
"So, did you take a name?"
"If you think about it, it's called farming."
Takayoshi Hashimoto understood that the little train was prepared by Jun Ono for his newborn son, and he felt a little guilty in his heart.
"Send this order to the North Thai Headquarters." Hashimoto handed over the order, and Ono took it respectfully, went out and got on his motorcycle and left.
Takayoshi Hashimoto returned to his office and took down from the bookshelf a delicate model of an iron locomotive, which his father, Hashimoto Sr., had bought when he was a road police captain at the South Manchurian Railway Company, and after playing with it, he was going to give it to Ono Jun's son.
But Ono Jun never came back, and he didn't see anyone alive or dead.
Takayoshi Hashimoto personally investigated the scene, and finally found the motorcycle that Toshitoshi Ono was riding in the woods on the side of the road, and the ** was already dead.
Even the safety of the gendarmes could not be guaranteed, Hashimoto Shaozo was so angry that he declared martial law in the whole city, searched and arrested, arrested hundreds of people and tortured them to extract confessions, and finally got a clue that the repeated perpetrators may be Zhao Ziming's personal guard, the son of a hunter.
Takayoshi Hashimoto is a Chinese expert, and he knows that it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, and the other party Shenlong is not the beginning and the end, and there is no way to arrest him, and the battle situation is deadlocked, he is only a military police officer, and he is not the commander of the field force, so he cannot launch a large-scale consultation, so he can only wait for the opportunity and take revenge.
He was waiting, Cheng Xuanzhu was also waiting, and the young hunter in Daqing Mountain was calm.
Zhao Ziming's head and body were all invited back to his hometown Chengjiazhai by the bolt pillar, and they were buried in the place where the two of them practiced martial arts together.
Cheng Xuanzhu kept an eye on the gendarmerie, a Japanese gendarmerie riding a motorcycle to deliver a letter, he was ambushed and shot down, deliberately not killed, but only injured a leg.
That guy is short and thin, and has a pair of glasses, at first glance he looks like a teacher, but he has a military police armband with red letters on a white background on his arm, these guys are all murderers who don't blink an eye, and they must not be deceived by their appearance.
The guy was so frightened that he trembled, couldn't cry, and muttered something endlessly, but the bolt didn't listen to him, picked up the ghost head knife, and cut it down, the little devil's head rolled around, and the blood was all over the ground, and the bolt didn't do anything, and peeled off his military uniform with a dagger, but when he wanted to dig out his heart, he found a chemical clip, opened it, and there was a photo inside, a devil in civilian clothes took a photo with a gentle woman, probably his wife.
In the end, the bolt pillar did not dig out his heart, but placed him in front of Commander Zhao's grave and asked him to apologize for his sins and guard the spirit.
