After waiting all night, no one in the encirclement broke out to the west.
Hu Yi took out his pocket watch and felt the slight rhythm of the silver pocket watch.
In the blurry light, I could barely tell that it was already six o'clock.
Under normal circumstances it should be bright early in the morning.
However, the sky was still overcast.
There seemed to be signs of rain.
A bolt of lightning suddenly pierced the sky.
Rumble.
It was thunder, not gunfire.
The gunshots that had been ringing out all night inside the encirclement became increasingly sparse.
From time to time, puppet troops carrying torches emerged from the encirclement.
Most of the stretchers were covered with white cloth.
The soldier who followed the puppet army's reconnaissance of carrying wounded soldiers finally came back: "Report, found the Japanese field hospital in the valley about ten miles to the south."
It started to rain.
It doesn't rain heavily.
A team hurried south among the mountain ridges.
Two hours later, the team reached a mountain ridge.
More than ten Japanese soldiers began to climb the ridge from the west carrying a stretcher.
A voice from the top of the mountain ridge suddenly shouted: "Stop, uh, Taijun"
"Baga." The person on the stretcher cursed directly in the bird's voice: "You didn't realize it until we got here, are you lazy?"
The puppet soldiers couldn't understand, so they nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
The old bandit Qi stepped forward, raised his hand and slapped the puppet sentry outside.
Without stopping, he continued walking along the mountain ridge.
"Where are the rest of you?" Liu Yuanqing asked, cursing intermittently on the stretcher.
"Report to Taijun, we are on guard duty in one shift. According to Taijun's instructions, we will be divided into two shifts. The other brothers will sleep in the woods!"
"The whistle-changer hasn't come yet?"
"Well, we just replaced them." The puppet squad leader replied cautiously.
The imperial army carrying the stretcher stared at the puppet army, his eyes turned green, which made the puppet army feel terrified: "Taijun, have you eaten, have you eaten? Missy, Missy?" Liu Yuanqing sniffed, and said to him in a friendly manner. The puppet soldier waved his hand: "Your porridge?"
"Yeah"
A few minutes later, the old bandit Qi immediately ordered the soldiers: "Signal, the puppet army guard posts on the mountain ridge have been cleared."
The team quickly retreated down the mountain ridge, leaving only the bloody smell on the top of the mountain ridge.
Then, a group of villagers at the foot of the mountain began to go up the mountain.
Another group of Japanese soldiers, whose clothes were stained with dried blood, led a group of puppet troops eastward.
Kusano Mitsuru can speak Chinese: "Don't worry, I am very trustworthy. I have agreed with Liu Sang that I will never attack the imperial soldiers."
Hu Yi was in second place: "You don't need to take action."
When they saw the Japs in ragged clothes, they were led by a sergeant commander. Two Japs standing guard and a dozen puppet soldiers followed them and saluted: "Please show me your ID."
Kusano Mitsuru took out his ID, with a strange look on his face, and said in a bird's voice: "Thank you for your hard work."
There was not much dialogue between the two sides.
The puppet soldiers behind directly used their knives.
The puppet soldier who was left alive still didn't understand what happened, so he knelt down and begged for mercy: "I have an elder."
Then I heard the narrow-eyed Japs asking: "How many Japs and puppet troops are there in the valley?"
The puppet soldiers did not hesitate to answer: "One squad leader and Japanese, two platoon puppet soldiers."
"How many wounded Japanese soldiers are there?"
"There were like thirty or so before I came out in the morning."
"How is the situation in the encirclement?"
"The resistance of the national army is very tenacious. All the wounded soldiers of the national army were killed. More than a thousand people were killed. Some of them hid in the mountains. I heard that they will all be eliminated at noon today." The puppet army told everything they heard.
"As far as we know, there should be a company of puppet troops, right?"
"No, the Japanese sent a platoon to clean the battlefield this morning." Hearing the suspicion in the other party's tone, the puppet platoon leader quickly emphasized: "The people who worked the night shift yesterday should be sleeping. At this time, there is only one platoon guarding the Japanese hospital."
Soon, the corpses of the Japanese and puppet soldiers were carried away, and more than ten puppet soldiers and two fake Japanese soldiers stood guard at the mountain pass with guns in hand.
The team continued down the valley.
A large tent appeared.
Doctors and nurses in white coats are busy.
Seeing the arrival of the imperial army and the puppet army, the puppet troops guarding everywhere quickly stood up straight.
The imperial army entered the largest tent. The military doctor who was performing surgery looked back and said, "Baga. The most important place for surgery."
After looking at the bayonet tip protruding from his abdomen in disbelief, the nurse next to him screamed in fright, and the sound disappeared.
Then shell guns began to ring out in the camp, and the gunshots were dense and short.
All the puppet soldiers on duty were killed, and the thirty or so sleeping puppet soldiers showed no resistance at all and were all taken prisoner.
After confirming that there was no one left alive in the wounded camp, a large number of villagers followed them into the valley.
The movements to clean up the battlefield were hurried, but very fast.
"Report, there are puppet troops coming from the east carrying the wounded."
Qi Lao Qi was stunned for a moment, muttered to Hu Yi for a while, and then walked up to the puppet prisoners: "Is there anyone who can speak bird language?"
All the puppet soldiers shook their heads.
The old bandit Qi had no choice but to pick out two puppet soldiers who had not wet their pants among the prisoners: "If you want to survive, you don't need me to teach you what to say later, right?"
The legs of the two puppet soldiers were trembling: "The little one understands, the little one understands"
Eight puppet soldiers were carrying four Japanese wounded soldiers. When the leading puppet soldier saw several imperial soldiers standing behind the two puppet soldiers at the entrance of the valley, he directly asked: "Beng Ya Dog, why are there gunshots?"
"I just found a deserter on the mountain ridge."
"Aren't you on duty in the west? Hey, why did Taijun come out too?"
Bengya Gou trembled a little as he spoke: "Taijun asked me to come over here and take a look. I changed my shift. The imperial army asked if the battle in the mountain was over."
"Why is your face so pale?" The leading puppet soldier was a little confused: "It should be fast. Those guys ran more than a hundred to the top of the mountain. The mountains are high and the forests are dense. It is estimated that none of them can escape."
"Baga." The dirty face behind the puppet army cursed.
The leading puppet army quickly knelt down and said hello to Taijun.
The Japanese man on the stretcher groaned in pain, opened his mouth and cursed: "Ah, Baga, hurry up. Let's go."
Bandit Qi picked out six soldiers from his platoon and arranged the mission in a low voice: "We will follow the puppet army into the mountains later. Everyone must remember the passwords clearly. You can do whatever the Japanese ask you to do. Do you understand?"
A soldier was shocked: "Deputy platoon leader, aren't we going to die?"
"You were originally a puppet army. There is so much chaos in the mountains. Now you want to go back to our old profession. You are afraid of a ball."
Half an hour later.
The team, dressed in puppet army uniforms and with red sleeve bands on their arms, turned along the valley and turned around.
The puppet soldiers and civilians were busy carrying the corpses and throwing them into the dug pits.
Thick smoke was pouring out of the cave halfway up the mountain, and fire was burning above the cave.
From time to time a long tongue of fire appeared.
Occasionally, human-shaped flames can be seen jumping around in the dense forest, and then igniting another forest.
At the foot of the mountain are densely packed corpses of national soldiers, and confiscated mortars, machine guns, rifles and ammunition form a hill.
Seeing the puppet troops coming, the puppet battalion commander directly asked Bengya Gou, whom he knew, "Where is your company commander?"
Beng Ya Gou replied with a depressed look on his face: "The company commander was busy all night yesterday and is catching up on his sleep."
The pseudo-battalion commander waved his hand: "Look, it's going to rain heavily, so hurry up and get to work."
There were many new members of the puppet army, and the puppet battalion commander did not recognize that several of the puppet soldiers with dirty faces were not his men.
Soon, the stretcher team followed Bengya Gou carefully to the group of wounded soldiers and Japanese soldiers sitting together.
The Japanese soldiers, who were lightly or seriously wounded, were looking up at the situation of clearing out the remaining enemies on the mountain ridge. They were talking among themselves and there was a buzz of shouting.
Several Japs were singing, as if they were singing a soul song for the dead Japs.
The Japanese doctor next to him was still treating the wounds at the scene.
Seeing the stretcher soldiers of the Imperial Alliance Army coming over, a few Japanese soldiers who were slightly injured and had to be sent to the hospital for surgery were cursed and put on stretchers by the puppet soldiers.
Saw the puppet troops dilly-dallying.
The translator standing next to him pointed at the nose of the old bandit Qi who was looking around: "What are you doing standing still? There are shrapnel on the imperial soldier's body. Take him back for surgery quickly. If something happens, be careful with your head."
"Yes, yes." Beng Ya Gou knew that if he dared to say a random word, these murderous demons would definitely kill him first.
That guy named Old Bandit Qi had explosives strapped to his body. If he lit himself on fire, all the Japs in this area would probably die!
Fortunately, he had no intention of dying with the little devil.
Isn't it just to survive that I become a puppet soldier?
In this situation, how dare you shout randomly.
Just count it as one more day to live.
Soon, ten puppet soldiers with cuffs on their arms, carrying five stretchers, moved westward along the valley amid the groans and curses of the Japanese.
not long time
The pseudo-battalion commander looked at the team of more than 30 people behind Shan Beng Ya Gou and was stunned for a moment: "Beng Ya Gou? Why are you back so soon?"
Beng Ya Gou was not as nervous as before: "Hehe, serve the imperial army and earn some performance."
"Hurry up and carry the registered rifles over there to our baggage team camp."
"Aren't you going to lift the wounded?"
"The Imperial Army is about to pay homage to the dead Imperial Army, and we will come back later to carry it out." The puppet battalion commander lowered his voice: "Remember, I told you, the company commander, not to sleep, and quickly pick out the broken thing in our hands to replace it." Change it."
The dirty face at the back suddenly said: "Batalion Commander, how about we move the machine gun?"
The puppet battalion commander is happy, this subordinate has a future!
His face turned dark again in an instant: "What the hell, the imperial army won't let us use it. Besides, our camp doesn't have many machine guns. Do you see the box over there? It's full of spare barrels and magazines. I'll go and talk to the emperor later." The quartermaster of the army spoke and took the opportunity to carry it away for me."
