The fifteen detective team members who escorted the suspects were taken to the sealed ditch and interrogated one by one.
The seven arrested suspects were taken into the smelly blockhouse.
All the arrested suspects were loosened, but they still regarded Ma Liang as a puppet soldier. When faced with Ma Liang's questioning, one of them, a middle-aged man in a long gown with scars from whips, cursed: "If a good person doesn't do it, he will follow the traitor." Zu Qiurong’s traitors are working together, and you will definitely not end well!”
Ma Liang had a black line on his head and explained casually: "We are the Eighth Route Army!"
The middle-aged man opposite looked carefully at all the people sleeping on the floor in the blockhouse, and sneered: "I'm looking at you, a kid, telling lies with your eyes open? Why... do you want to lie to Mr. Ben?"
"I...you don't believe it?"
"Let me make it clear to you, Mr. I am just a poor teacher who has nothing to do with the Eighth Route Army. If you want to get money, just ask. In three days... in three days, my boss will send thirty oceans. You Don’t bring trouble on Mr. Ben!”
The six people squatting on the ground against the wall quickly echoed: "Sir, this is really unjust. We are all good citizens..."
This area was originally the defense area of the Second Company, but unfortunately the soldiers in the Second Company didn't know the men in front of them at all.
This middle-aged teacher should be the target of the detective team to fish in troubled waters. Ma Liang was a little confused and couldn't think of how to explain to them.
Regardless of whether they are underground workers or not, they cannot be released at the moment.
Who knows if there might be spies among these people who were deliberately planted by the detective team?
The Japanese are not stupid. They often send people to sneak into the arrested people to get information. This cannot be done carelessly.
A soldier with a bandage on his arm ran into the gun building: "Platoon Commander Ma, Company Commander Hu is informing the platoon leaders of each squad to assemble!"
"Just watch these guys first, get them something to eat, and don't let them run away!" After Ma Liang finished speaking, he shouted to the turret: "Assemble squad and platoon leaders!"
More than a dozen puppet soldiers stood in a row, muttering to each other, rubbing their eyes and looking up at Hu Yi.
Hu Yi frowned: "According to the original plan, we divided into two teams. After the patrol team from the north arrived, we immediately controlled the patrolling puppet troops. Ma Liang led a company and a squad of soldiers to prepare, pretending to be a patrol team and headed north to capture the two miles to the north. In the turret outside, the soldiers of the second company continue to rest."
"Yes!" After Ma Liang saluted, he immediately added: "Report to the company commander that there are seven suspects caught by traitors. What should we do now?"
Hu Yi turned to look at the blockhouse: "We are not familiar with the situation here. The Second Company will have underground staff coming to identify it tonight! Let them stay on the second floor of the blockhouse, and none of us are allowed to have contact with them!"
Hu Yi arranged this to protect the suspects and to have the soldiers try not to meet them, in case any soldiers were captured and gave away these treasures to the underground staff.
Tiedan, who was covered in dirt, immediately reported: "Report to Captain Hu, the interrogation of the arrested detective team members has been completed, what should we do now?"
"What's going on?"
Zhao Tieyin said with a sullen face: "This separate interrogation really worked. A few lying traitors couldn't keep up with their confessions and wanted to fish in troubled waters to escape. Now they are all found out. Together with the puppet army, they are responsible for arresting the common people who have access to the Eighth Road in each village. These days A dozen common people related to the Eighth Route Army were hanged to death."
Hu Yi carefully thought about the work team's regulations on dealing with traitors. Now that he could not fully comply with the conditions for education and release, he gritted his teeth and said, "All those who committed the most heinous crimes will be buried!"
"Yes!" Zhao Tie was a little undecided: "Company Commander, how can you consider this a heinous crime?"
Hu Yi glared at Tiedan: "You make up your own mind. Ma Liang immediately selects experienced combatants to make preparations. The Second Company organizes a squad to explore the south blockhouse before dark. Disband now!"
After a while, Luo Fugui, who blocked the ditch and searched for the traitors for a long time, was very disappointed.
He stood up and went to Tiedan who was coming back from the meeting and shook his head: "These traitors are all poor people, even poorer than me!"
Tiedan was overjoyed. Fortunately, he was one step ahead! He quickly took out a handful of colorful banknotes from his pocket: "Hey, these are the captured Japanese military notes. We have no way out. See if you can..."
Luo Fugui was stunned for a moment: "What do you mean?"
"You have a way, can you help us buy some daily necessities?"
"You've found the right person now!" After Luo Fugui said that, he took the banknote and put it into his pocket.
A soldier next to him stared wide-eyed: "Platoon leader, didn't you say that all seizures must be returned to the public?"
Tiedan glanced at him and nodded: "Isn't it that I am giving Company Commander Hu... his assistant to the public?"
"Well, I also have..."
Luo Fugui stared at the soldier with a smile: "Your grandma...is aware!"
Tiedan looked at Luo Fugui speechlessly and rolled his eyes: "Hey, just now Company Commander Hu asked us to identify the most heinous traitors. What do you think we'll do about this?"
Luo Fugui saw that Tiedan was so stubborn and said casually: "For such a simple thing like your grandma's, as long as his hands are stained with the blood of our Eighth Route Army or ordinary people... then it is a heinous crime!"
Tiedan was stunned for a moment: "How can I have so much time to verify these details one by one?"
"We have so many wounded people, why don't you just get some blood on them and let them get it?"
More than a dozen traitors squatted in the blockade ditch, watching in horror as a few Eighth Route wounded soldiers slipped down from the ladder beside the blockade ditch and were greeting and shaking hands with them with bloody hands.
It didn't take long, and a row of eight soldiers with bayonets pointed out escorted the traitors to the south of the blockade ditch.
Looking at the dozen or so traitors who were blocking the bottom of the ditch and digging a hole for the eighth road, the traitors with their hands tied behind their backs seemed to understand something and shouted in horror: "Eighth Master, spare your life..."
Tiedan looked resolutely at the traitors who were kneeling on the ground: "Now do you think of asking for mercy? Why didn't you listen to the villagers shouting for mercy when you were hanging them?"
Hu Yi stood on the edge of the blockade ditch, looked at the scene below, and shook his head.
In normal times, these traitors could still educate, but now there are no conditions for supervision behind enemy lines. If these traitors were released, they would definitely report them immediately. Besides, if the seven underground personnel captured by these traitors had not happened to be guarding here, then There is no need to think about the fate of the seven people.
The traitors caught ordinary suspects and hanged them directly. Only real intelligence personnel would be escorted to the county seat by them!
If these traitors fall into their hands, they must not be let go.
In the sealed ditch, the westward sunlight shines on half of the pit, and there is no wind.
As the sound of rifle butts hitting their heads continued to make a muffled sound, all fifteen traitors fell to the ground and twitched.
The soldiers immediately stepped forward and stripped off their clothes one by one.
No bayonets were used this time, as the clothes were still useful.
There were many new recruits in the company, and they were not yet completely accustomed to this method of burying people alive.
Some began to vomit as shovelfuls of dirt covered the bodies.
