The executioners traveled all the way to Tokyo, and many people were seasick and vomited and diarrhea along the way, and basically none of these people had ever traveled far away, and some of them had never even left the county seat, let alone this time they were going abroad.

Upon arrival in Tokyo, the executioners were placed in a house where the army was stationed, and it was not until a few days later that they recovered and became murderous again.

The news that the Japanese war criminals who had been sentenced to death would be uniformly executed on 1 October had already spread more than a week ago, and the first to learn the news was the Chinese press industry, and these news media immediately dispatched reporters to follow up on the matter after learning the news, and the news quickly spread abroad, and in a short period of a few days, the whole world learned of the news, and many people from all over the world rushed to Tokyo by boat to watch the execution of those Japanese war criminals.

Those who lost their parents, brothers and sisters in the war hated the Japanese war criminals to the core, and when they heard that those Japanese war criminals were going to be executed on October 1, they put down their work and went to the local departments to go through the formalities for leaving the country, and prepared to go to Tokyo, Japan to watch the execution.

When the staff of the relevant departments who went through the relevant procedures for leaving the country asked them about their reasons for leaving the country, they were very surprised to learn that they were all going to Tokyo to watch the execution, and according to the statistics of the relevant departments, more than 80,000 people from China and the DPRK went to Japan to watch the execution.

This number is too large and has attracted the attention of government departments, and Premier Song Shijie has also specifically instructed relevant departments to do a good job in the safety, food and accommodation of these people in Tokyo. In particular, it is necessary to protect the safety of the execution site and prevent riots.

Today is September 30th. Tomorrow is the day of the execution of Japanese war criminals, and the executioners are lining up in several rows on the training ground of the barracks to practice wielding guillotine knives. The one in charge of training them is Lao Ding.

Although Lao Ding is old, he used to be a well-known ancestor-level figure in the executioner industry, don't look at Lao Ding's five big and three thick, and he has horizontal meat, but he is by no means a simple executioner who cuts off the head of a prisoner. He is proficient in all the ten tortures of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and he is also well aware of all kinds of other tortures, and he is as skilled in cutting off his head as he is eating and drinking. He was one of the executioners, after that incident, it was rumored that someone wanted to avenge the six gentlemen, and Lao Ding was also listed as the object of revenge, Lao Ding was worried about reprisals so he returned to his hometown in the northeast with his family to avoid the disaster.

When the executioner is executed, he must be quick with his eyes and hands, and he must cut off the head of the prisoner with one knife, cleanly and neatly, never dragging mud and water, and never having a second knife. If the guillotine is stuck in the neck bone during the execution, the matter will be a big deal, and it is said that this will make the executioner unlucky in the future. When a prisoner dies in great pain, he becomes an evil spirit and haunts the executioner all day long, making him uneasy, so being an executioner is definitely a high-tech job. The executioner needs to have a good understanding of the human neck bone, and the executioner needs to be able to cut in the exact position every time. Achieving this level will not happen overnight, and it will require the executioner to practice chopping with his sword every day. In the process of accumulation, practice fast, accurate and ruthless stunts.

The treatment of the executioners is also good, since this is a high-tech and high-risk industry, it is not something that ordinary people can compete, so only those who are born with strong physique and sufficient yang energy in their bodies can engage in this profession, and every executioner's income is very expensive.

In the past, the salaries given to the executioners in the yamen were definitely high, and the yamen wanted to support them to come in handy at critical times, not only that, but the families of those prisoners who were about to be sent to the execution ground to be beheaded in order to prevent their families from suffering on the execution ground, would give some benefits to the executioner in charge of the execution the day before or a few days before, begging the executioner to be clean and neat during the execution, and not to let their relatives die in extreme pain.

"One"

"Hah"

"Two"

"Hah"

"Three"

"Hah"

Lao Ding kept shouting the trumpet in front of the executioners with his hands behind his back, and the executioners waved the guillotine one by one and kept chopping, practicing for a whole afternoon, and in the evening Lao Ding finally stopped shouting the trumpet.

"Okay, that's the end of the practice before the execution, I know that you must have back pain, it's no wonder, we have abolished the punishment of beheading in our country for many years, and you haven't wielded a guillotine for many years, and now it's no wonder that you have back pain when you pick it up again, but after so many days of recovery practice, I believe you should have recovered almost. The matters that need to be paid attention to when the execution on the execution ground, I don't need to say more, you should all understand, don't have an accident when the execution is carried out tomorrow, solve it with a knife, and there must be no mending the knife, otherwise there will be a big joke, we are going abroad this time, let the foreigners laugh at our lack of skills, we can't afford to lose this person. Of course, things are not absolute, no one dares to guarantee that there will be no accidents at the time of execution, some people have different bones than others, and it is also possible that some of you are not in good shape during the execution and cause a knife not to be solved, this is also possible, if this kind of thing really happens, you should not panic, you must quickly cut off the second knife, all understand? ”

All the executioners answered loudly together: "Understood! ”

Lao Ding was just about to shout to disperse, when Director Meng, who was in charge of taking them to the International Military Tribunal for the Far East, drove a small jeep over, the car stopped, and Director Meng got down from the car and greeted Lao Ding: "Lao Ding! ”

Lao Ding hurriedly took two steps over and said, "Director Meng, why are you here?" Is there any indication? ”

Director Meng waved his hand and said with a smile: "There are no instructions, that is, there are a few words to explain to you, and I will bring you a few jars of burning knives from China, and tomorrow will be executed, I heard that you are going to drink wine and eat meat to strengthen your courage before the execution, so I found someone to buy these burning knives from China, and there are also some marinated meat, all of which are for you, all for me to eat and drink well, raise enough strength and spirit, and use your good work and good performance tomorrow!" ”

Lao Ding patted his chest and packed the ticket, bowed and nodded again, "Director Meng, don't worry, we will definitely do our work beautifully!" ”

Director Meng nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, for you people, Justice Cao and I are still very relieved, it's up to you tomorrow, Lao Ding, let them unload all the wine and meat!" ”

"Yes, Director Meng!" Lao Ding agreed, and immediately beckoned the other executioners to bring all the wine and meat down from the jeep.

That night, Lao Ding and the executioners fell asleep after eating and drinking enough, and slept until dawn.

The next day, on the morning of October 1, the day of the execution finally came.

In order to maintain order, an iron fence was enclosed around the execution ground, and the execution ground was divided into several areas, all of which were isolated separately.

Before dawn, tens of thousands of people gathered around the execution ground, not only from China, but also from North Korea, and more from Western countries, but more of them were local Japanese, most of whom were civilians who came to see the excitement, a few were people from all walks of life in Japan, and the families of Japanese war criminals who were about to be beheaded.

In order to prevent harassment, the International Military Tribunal for the Far East asked the Chinese garrison to send a regiment of troops to maintain order, and although there were many onlookers this time, there were so many troops to maintain order, and the scene was orderly, and although some people kept talking, talking and crying, there was no crowding, noise, or stampede, and there were groups of soldiers patrolling the crowd incessantly.

The eastern sky gradually turned white, the sun jumped out of the horizon, and people took out the food they brought to make breakfast to solve the problem of hunger.

Fortunately, it is the time of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the weather is not very cold, most people have brought their coats, and after a period of low temperature in the early morning, the temperature begins to warm up after the sun rises.

At eight o'clock in the morning, when the number of people increased, the gate of the execution ground was opened by the guards, and under the command of the soldiers, the people entered the execution ground in order, and after entering, they were guided to sit in the corresponding positions.

At this time, billowing smoke and dust rose from the road in the direction of the distant city of Tokyo, and a company of more than 20 trucks, most of which were war criminals, and a few trucks were soldiers detained along the way.

After the convoy stopped, the escort soldiers jumped down from the car and escorted the war criminals to the guillotine, at this time tens of thousands of people in the field all stood up, and there was even chaos on the side of the relatives of the war criminals, many relatives of the war criminals wanted to force over the railing, but were stopped by the soldiers on guard, after some warning, some chaotic situation began to quiet down.

Qin Liankui, as the supreme judge of the International Military Tribunal for the Far East and the supervisor of the execution, he had already sat on the main seat, and there were judges from other countries sitting on both sides, and there was no rule that judges from various countries must come to see the execution, but these foreign judges still came!

"Your Excellency, the hour has come!"

Qin Liankui took out his pocket watch and looked at it, and immediately said, "When the time comes, the execution will begin!" ”

Tens of thousands of onlookers stood up again at this time, and the scene began to be chaotic again, many of them were survivors who had been brutalized by the Japanese army, and they all raised their arms and shouted hysterically: "Kill, kill!" ”

The executioners took the sticks from the backs of the mortals and threw them on the ground, and each took a large sip of wine from the bowl, half swallowed it, and sprayed half on the guillotine, and then all the executioners raised the guillotine.

"Slash-"

A flash of knife light, heads rolled to the ground, dozens of heads fell to the ground at the same time, the scene was too spectacular, most of the people shouted loudly: "Good! (To be continued......)
