At this time, the traitor who led the way came up to the lieutenant and said with a smile: "Lord Lieutenant, what about the villagers hiding in the cave?" ”

The lieutenant was busy directing the soldiers to stuff the villagers into the big trucks, which were already full, so the villagers could only be crammed into small cars like arhats.

He said impatiently, "What else! Shao Zuo didn't even ask, what the hell are you doing! ”

The traitor grinned and made a suggestion.

"You see there are some children in the barnyard, there is only one person, their father and mother should be hiding in the cave, you have not had time to take the child, you can put the child in the valley, let him call his father, call people out!"

The lieutenant laughed and slapped the traitor on the back of the head.

"What a good idea!"

The traitor also laughed.

So the lieutenant consulted Taro Kobayashi, who glanced at the traitor and did not object.

In the valley, a lonely child stood in the clearing, looking at the surrounding mountains and the caves scattered all over the mountains, timidly shouting, "Daddy! Mother! ”

The lieutenant drew a leather whip and snapped it on the child's back. "Loud!"

The child began to cry, crying and shouting, "Daddy! Mother! ”

Bang Bang Bang! Whip after whip, whipping the child all over the ground, crying dad and calling mother, echoes crashing and crashing in the valley, but the cave was always quiet.

The lieutenant was furious, took out a barrel of gasoline from the big truck, poured it on the child's head, lit a lighter, and threw it on the child.

With a bang, the flames rose more than one person high, engulfing the child in an instant.

A shrill and piercing cry rolled through the valley like thunder.

"My son!" A woman rushed out of a cave crying, and when she saw the tragic condition of the child in the valley, she immediately jumped off the cliff.

"Go up!" The lieutenant pointed to the cave and shouted.

Soon, the soldiers searched for a dozen villagers from the cave.

Kobayashi Taro watched quietly the scene of the valley cliffs all the time, and when the dozen or so villagers were also stuffed into the big truck, the convoy returned to the barracks.

He beckoned the traitor to come over.

The traitor came over with a grin, feeling that he had done something good and straightened his waist slightly. "Lord Shaozo, what do you command?"

"What other villages and towns are nearby?"

"We've been to all the nearby villages, and there is only one Lianghe town left."

"How many people are in town?"

"There are a lot of escapes, about 10,000 or 20,000 now."

Lianghe Town is very small, but it is not as cautious as an ordinary village, and the policy of the Japanese military department is much more cautious, and it generally does not directly Sanguang, so it has been kept until now.

Kobayashi Taro thought for a moment and waved his white gloves. "Go back first."

The military camp is stationed at the mouth of a river surrounded by mountains on three sides, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but the disadvantage is that there is not much space, and the villagers brought back are even more crowded when they are stuffed into the barracks.

Fortunately, Osa is in a meeting at the military headquarters and has not yet returned, so no one dares to object to Kobayashi Taro's behavior for the time being.

After Kobayashi Taro returned to the camp, he immediately ordered to send men and horses to block all the three entrances and exits of Lianghe Town.

For a while, the people of Lianghe Town were panicked, and people couldn't believe that bad luck would finally befall them.

The lieutenant was sent back to Gulin Village to draw a detailed map within a radius of 100 miles.

The lieutenant was puzzled by this task, the village of Gulin had been destroyed by fire, and even if some of the villagers had escaped hiding in the caves, when they returned home, they would only be faced with a pile of ruins, and then they would have to leave their homes and become beggars.

But the military order could not be disobeyed, and the lieutenant had to endure his annoyance and return to the col with complex terrain and caves.

In the middle of the night, the guards reported that a wealthy family in Lianghe Town had asked to see Shaozuo.

The rich families were afraid that Shao Zuo would not see him, so they first paid tribute to a large box of gold, silver and jewelry, and then they were brought into the living room.

Seeing Kobayashi Taro, the rich families all showed flattering smiles, and then some cried that there were old and young, some begged Shaozuo's subordinates to show mercy, some generously expressed their wishes for the Sino-Japanese friendly family, and some nodded in agreement.

Kobayashi listened quietly, then stood up.

The hall was silent, and everyone looked at him eagerly.

Kobayashi Taro shouted to the guards outside the door, "Someone! ”

Two columns of guards quickly poured into the parlor and surrounded the rich households.

Kobayashi Taro waved his white gloves. "Buckle!"

The rich people panicked, what is going on? How can you take people and things and arrest people? Is there still a royal law under the sky?

They are wrong, the royal law is for the people, and the king himself does not need the royal law.

The wealthy were stuffed into prison cells and were surprised to find it crowded with villagers from several nearby villages.

Subsequently, the wealthy family in Lianghe Town received a letter personally delivered by the Japanese soldiers, the content of which was very simple: send money and release people.

Looking at the messenger soldier standing at the door with a steel gun in hand, the rich family's family could only tremble and raise money to send money.

The governors of a town are often better informed, fleeing faster than the rich, and now they have no place to cry for help, but to ask for more blessings.

At noon the next day, the money arrived. The lieutenant also returned with the map.

At the same time, bad news came that the Eighth Route Army was approaching.

The exhausted lieutenant was in good spirits, and finally had a chance to show his strength!

How long has it been since he fought properly? He has been retreating, has been burning and looting villages, he is about to forget his ambition to join the army in the first place!

But Shao Zuo poured a basin of cold water on him with an order.

He wants to take everyone in prison back to Gulin Village! Before that, he had to lead the troops into Lianghe Town, arrest everyone in the town, and send them to Gulin Village together!

The lieutenant was furious, what kind of bullshit order is this?

Poured out of the nest, hid in the mountain col, and handed over the military camp and all the territory and supplies occupied to the Eighth Road?

As soon as he lowered his head, his voice was sonorous and powerful.

"Shaozuo, I have the responsibility to report this matter to Dazuo!"

Kobayashi Taro looked up from the map and looked at him coldly.

"You're going to disobey orders?"

Cold sweat broke out on the lieutenant's forehead, but he bowed his head even harder and said, "If Dazuo also agrees to your order, his subordinates will immediately carry it out!" ”

Kobayashi Taro "giggled" and laughed coquettishly. "Dazuo won't agree."

The lieutenant was stunned for a moment, what was this demonic laughter?

What surprised him even more happened, a figure came out of Kobayashi Taro's body, although it was vague, but it could be vaguely seen that it was a woman.

That is Ji Tianyun's three souls.

Shao Zuo sat on the ground with a bang, weak and weak, panting heavily, as if he had been smothered for a long time.

And the woman's shadow was slightly transparent in the sunlight, and she walked freely in the room, as if she were the real owner of the place.

The lieutenant brushed and drew his gun and pointed it at the shadow, but hesitated.

The shadow laughed. "Do you think guns will work for me?"

With a slight hook of her fingers, the lieutenant's gun suddenly took off her hand, hung in the air, turned around and pointed at the lieutenant, and clicked on the load!

The lieutenant's scalp tightened, and he straightened his body and did not dare to move.

The shadow approached the lieutenant, and his face, which could not see his facial features clearly, seemed to be covered with a hazy veil.

But there was a pair of pupils that gradually cleared up under the veil, flashing with a dazzling light!

The lieutenant felt that the pair of bright pupils seemed to be an invisible hand, and suddenly grabbed his consciousness firmly, and he could no longer break free!

He bowed his head and said loudly: "Your subordinates will carry out your orders!" ”
