Tangshan City Temporary Prison, where all the Japanese puppet traitors and lackeys were found before, will be a just trial.

A prison cell is already full of people, and the suspects in it are chattering, fighting, dazing, sleeping, crying, and shouting wrongs.

Bang Dang! The iron gate was pushed open, and a team of policemen stood at the door with loaded guns, and the first person was Chen Wanchun, the acting director and adviser of the Jidong Public Security Bureau. The suspects coaxed, and seemed to be a little nervous, but after seeing the submachine gun in the prison guard's hand, they quickly became honest.

"I'm wronged, ask the chief for mercy, let me go!" A middle-aged man suddenly fell to the ground and kowtowed vigorously.

Chen Wanchun snorted and said, "Whether you are wronged or not, you will find out!" He asked again, "Pan Huilin, come out!" Come with us. ”

The old man he had caught earlier was hiding in a gloomy, trembling when he heard the words, he looked up, and happened to meet Chen Wanchun's fierce eyes, so frightened that he hurriedly lowered his head, pretending not to hear.

"Don't pretend, you're Pan Huilin!"

"I'm not, I'm not!" The old man hurriedly waved his hand.

"Dare you say no? Take! ”

The two prison guards pushed away a group of suspects and arrested Pan Huilin directly. The old man was probably so frightened that his legs went limp. The guards grabbed him by the arm and carried him out.

The other suspects discussed: "Damn, it turns out that this bad old man is Pan Huilin!" ”

"Pan Huilin? Phew, I knew it was this dog thing. Lao Tzu must beat him to death! ”

A suspicious suspect muttered, "Ah, no, the crime surnamed Pan must be beheaded!" How do you lock us up with this guy? When the other suspects heard this, they also panicked.

"It's over, it's over, woo, spare your life, comrade policeman, I haven't done such a big sin!"

"Be honest, you're not a good thing! Trouble again. Fate with this old man! The prison guard scolded. The suspects were startled and kept silent.

Interrogation room.

"Pan Huilin, raise your head!"

"Say, why do you want to help the Japanese to kill the villagers in Panjiayu!"

Pan Huilin was so frightened that he was like sifting chaff. He said repeatedly: "Spare your life." Spare your life. The old men are all confused, and they are all forced by the little devils! ”

……

Although Panjiayu Village is only a small mountain village in Fengrun Belt Mountain, it has always had a tradition of not being afraid of violence. In the face of the Japanese invaders, they organized many rebellions. With the mobilization of the village party branch, more than 30 young and middle-aged people joined the riot team, mobilized the masses to raise food money for the riot team, and organized women to make military uniforms and shoes.

Under very difficult conditions, the villagers mounted their horses and made their own weapons. They used canned boxes to fill gunpowder, detonators, and pieces of crushed pig iron to make earthen grenades; Use hollowed-out willow wood, put iron hoops on the outside, and paint black smoke to make earthen cannons. Using these native weapons, he effectively dealt a blow to the Japanese invaders and made Panjiayu a fortress village of the Eighth Route Army in eastern Hebei. Therefore, some important organs of the Eastern Hebei Military Sub-region, as well as arsenals and printing houses, were all located in Panjiayu. After the battle, the commanders and fighters of the 12th Regiment were always willing to go to Panjiayu to rest and recuperate. As soon as the soldiers returned to Panjiayu, it was like returning to their own home.

However, because of this, Pan Jiayu has become a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh of the Japanese criminals, and he wants to get rid of him as soon as possible. In the two or three years from the summer of 1938 to the end of 1940, Panjiayu was encircled and suppressed 138 times. But the villagers had already taken precautions, so the Japanese puppet army was either empty or ambushed every time. Panjiayu's militia and the 12th Regiment cooperated with each other, and often beat the Japanese puppet soldiers on their backs and became anxious. At that time, when the Japanese puppet personnel mentioned Panjiayu, they often talked about the tiger's color change, and they were terrified, so they threatened to wash Panjiayu in blood.

In the winter of 1940, the villagers knew that the Japanese army might come to "sweep", so they hid in the nearby mountains. But at this time, Pan Huilin, a large landowner living in Tangshan (he was the largest landowner in the village), sent a letter to his brother. The letter said that because of his gift and intercession, the Japanese promised not to sweep Panjiayu again during the Spring Festival, and told the villagers to just go home for the New Year with peace of mind and ensure that there was no trouble.

Pan Huilin's younger brother's family was the first to move back, and it was fine after a few days. The villagers thought that no matter how bad this Pan Huilin was, he would not harm his own brother, and the conditions in the mountains were too difficult, and the old people and children couldn't bear it, so they were deceived back to the village one after another.

On January 24, 1941, the anti-Japanese government received information that the Japanese army was about to encircle and suppress Panjiayu, and sent three chicken feather letters in succession, informing the cadres of Panjiayu to quickly organize the transfer of the masses. However, these three letters were stuffed in the pocket of Pan Shanchun, the armed squad leader of Pan Jiayu. He only cared about playing with money, and he didn't even look at the three letters. By the time he took out the money to watch, nearly 1,000 Japanese puppet troops had already surrounded Panjiayu......

If it weren't for Pan Huilin's letter, even if the Japanese army had attacked, so many villagers would not have been killed. This lackey scum is really innocent!

Bang! Chen Wanchun slapped the table and asked, "Pan Huilin, do you have anything else to explain?" ”

"Spare your life, sir! The old man really doesn't know the emperor...... The little devil was so mad that he wanted to slaughter the village. ”

"You don't know? So what do you think the little devil is doing? New Year's greetings to the folks? They are all villagers of the same village, why are you so vicious! ”

Pan Huilin finally had nothing to say, and sat down on the ground, beads of sweat the size of beans rolling down his forehead from time to time, just begging to let his family go. But he didn't think about it, just because of his letter, more than 30 households in Panjiayu Village were killed!

A few days later, the Eastern Hebei Military Region decided to hold a public trial of the murderers involved in the tragedy in Panjiayu. The principal leaders of the military region and the heads of the courts, public security bureaus, and other judicial departments were all present at the scene. This trial is not only to seek justice for the Panjiayu tragedy, but also to set a benchmark for similar cases across the country!

Ling Yizhong (puppet Fengrun County magistrate and captain of the garrison brigade, president of the Xinmin Association), Tadao Tanaka (instructor of the Japanese army stationed in Fengrun County), Baltian (Japanese stationed in Fengrun County), Morimoto (captain of the military police stationed in Fengrun County), Dong Penglin (external affairs secretary of the pseudo Fengrun County Public Office, interpreter of the cooperative), Tian Baowen (translator of the pseudo Fengrun County Office), Li Jigui (deputy captain of the pseudo Fengrun County Garrison), Wang Zhiguo (director of the pseudo Fengrun County Police Station), He Xiaopeng (chief inspector of the pseudo Fengrun County Police Station), Li Liansheng (head of the secret service department of the pseudo Fengrun County Police Station), Lu Xin (secretary of the pseudo Fengrun County Office), Tang Lianrong (head of the construction section of the pseudo Fengrun County Office), Qian Guitang (member of the financial department of the pseudo Fengrun County) ...... As well as the captured murderers who participated in the massacre -- a certain machine gun squadron of the 1st Wing of the 27th Division of the Japanese Army, and the puppet garrison and puppet police of Fengrun County, a total of more than 1,300 people, were all escorted to Panjiayu.

"Kill them, kill them!"

"Avenge the folks!"

"Blood debt and blood payment!"

At the public trial meeting, villagers from Panjiayu and more than 20 nearby villages came to observe. The crowd at the scene was indignant, and everyone had only one request, which was to take revenge and blood hatred!

Commander Li of the Eastern Hebei Military Region is also a decisive figure, and he has always beheaded traitors directly. However, there were more murderers this time, especially many of the Japanese puppet army who surrendered voluntarily, so they were a little hesitant. After all, according to the policy of the Eighth Route Army, prisoners have always been treated preferentially. And the general soldier also belongs to the "blinded" class and can be reformed.

"Director Chen, if all of these people are executed, I am afraid that it will affect the future united front work. Are we just punishing the evildoers, and the co-servants and ordinary soldiers give them another chance to be human again? ”

Chen Wanchun said coldly: "From the moment they raised the butcher knife, humanity has been extinct!" As for those puppet army traitors, in the face of the slaughter of their compatriots, they were not only indifferent, but also handed knives to the Japanese criminals. This kind of person is even more damned! Not only them, but also the hypocrites will be punished. ”

Commander Li listened to the blood boiling, and stroked his palms and said, "Okay, that's how it should be!" If you are a traitor, a hypocrisy, and the Eighth Road, military family, and martyr's family are treated the same, then how can you be worthy of the sacrificial comrades! Just where Commander-in-Chief Zheng is? ”

Chen Wanchun replied: "Please rest assured, Commander Li, before leaving, Commander-in-Chief Zheng had already instructed that the united front is for victory, and now we don't need to unite against these executioners and accomplices, just let those traitors and lackeys tremble before death!" ”

Historically, the Japanese soldiers Katagawa Misazard and Konosuke Tsunaka who participated in the tragedy not only did not repent in their later years, but also openly "overturned" the Panjiayu tragedy. Now they won't have that chance again. There is only one end for all the criminals - to go to hell and be punished!

At the operational meeting of the Second Theater of Operations' counteroffensive in the northeast, Zheng Weiguo solemnly promised: "We will never forgive the Japanese invaders and national scum!" ”

In view of the heinous crimes committed by Ling Yizhong, Pan Huilin, and others, in accordance with the decree of the military region and at the request of the people of eastern Hebei, the military region decided to execute all the first accomplices of the tragedy in order to set an example! The Panjiayu revenge group was then ordered to execute, tooth for tooth, blood for blood!

Unfortunately, the first offender, Shinzaburo Sasaki (an adviser to the Japanese military branch office in Fengrun Prefecture), was transferred back to Japan shortly after the tragedy and escaped. However, it is believed that the day when the executioner will be beheaded will not be far off. Skynet is magnificent, negligent but not leaky, and all the murderers will not be able to escape the sanctions! (To be continued......)
