"Hoo! Hoo!"
"Over here, catch them!"
Momotaro fled frantically with one of his men, already panting from exhaustion.
But no matter how you escape, it is difficult to escape the pursuit of the patrol.
Momotaro's brain was spinning rapidly at this time, thinking of ways to escape. But at this moment, two patrols surrounded them from two directions and trapped them in a narrow alley.
Momotaro and another Japanese spy quickly fired at the entrance of the alley. A submachine gun and a 9mm pistol fired continuously, blocking the patrol team from rushing into the alley.
But the patrol was not a vegetarian. They immediately fired back into the alley with guns.
However, their bodies were still hiding behind the wall, using random marksmanship to suppress their opponents.
Because the alley is too narrow, whoever shows his head at this time will definitely die.
Momotaro and the Japanese spy did not dare to show their faces.
They were hiding behind some debris in the alley and firing back, or they were constantly changing their positions to avoid the firepower of the patrols.
So although the two warring parties fought fiercely, they almost did it without each other seeing each other.
Bullets flew across the alley and bounced off the brick walls.
Pieces of blue bricks were scattered everywhere, and the air was filled with the smell of gunpowder smoke.
Momotaro became more and more anxious as he fought, because the opponent could suppress them with such a force and not attack, but he and another Japanese spy had to consider their situation at this time.
The longer they stay in one place, the more dangerous they become.
Momotaro was the first to look at the wall behind. The wall was about three and a half meters high, and he couldn't get up at all. Unless someone is under the wall to give him a hand.
He looked at the spy on the side. The spy thought for a while and said: "Your Excellency, I am willing to die for you. But I hope that if you can go back alive, you can take care of my family, especially my younger brother. I don't want him to be drafted like me. , sent to China."
Momotaro thought for a moment and said, "I will fulfill your wish."
"Hi!"
The Japanese spy had no suspicion, or rather his suspicion was useless. Because he will die after helping Momotaro today, and at that time, how will he know whether Momotaro has fulfilled his promise?
So he also wanted peace of mind, betting that Momotaro would be able to fulfill his promise for the sake of saving his life.
Of course, it is undeniable that these people who follow Momotaro still trust Momotaro. At least in the previous battle, Momotaro did not leave any of them and escape.
So the spy quickly squatted under the wall.
Momotaro didn't say much, and ran straight over, risking bullets flying everywhere, and stepped on the spy's back.
At this time, it could be clearly seen that the spy's body sank down, but then he straightened his body up.
Momotaro used the strength of the Japanese spy to straighten his body and quickly jumped up, riding on the wall.
Momotaro thought for a while, then leaned on the wall and stretched out his hand to the Japanese spy.
The Japanese spy smiled slightly, but a mouthful of blood spurted out. It turned out that just when he ran towards the wall, he was hit by a stray bullet, and he was no longer able to escape.
He shouted at Momotaro: "Your Excellency, go away quickly, I will stop them."
As he spoke, the Japanese spy held a submachine gun and rushed towards the alley entrance while pulling the trigger while braving stray bullets flying everywhere.
"idiot!"
Momotaro cursed, but his eye sockets were slightly moist.
He is also a person with feelings. Although his feelings have always been hidden in his heart, it is undeniable that he will be more humane with Taro Aso and Kitashirakawa.
People like Momotaro, Kitashirakawa Aoi, and Doihara would definitely abandon their only son and run away if the battle situation was unfavorable.
Although Momotaro also made the Imperial Association Army die, he never left his subordinates behind.
So when he saw his men rushing towards the enemy to cover his departure, he was indeed touched.
But the seemingly heroic but helpless Japanese spy couldn't stop anyone at all. He rushed forward less than five meters before he was hit by multiple stray bullets and died tragically in front of Momotaro.
Momotaro sighed and jumped directly to the other side of the yard. But when he looked up, he saw a huge garden.
The garden is covered with shade trees, jagged rocks, and there is a pool in the middle of the garden.
There are pavilions, wooden bridges, etc. above the pool.
But Momotaro was not in the mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery of the garden at all, but hurriedly ran to the other side of the courtyard wall.
But the courtyard wall was still very high, and it was not easy for him to climb up.
He finally found a ladder, but at this moment, he heard the voice of a patrol from behind the wall: "Quick, block this place quickly! We must not let the Japanese spies escape."
Momotaro smiled bitterly, he might not be able to escape.
He hid in the woods, his heart was filled with despair. Unexpectedly, Momotaro, a top student at the Army University, died in the enemy's hinterland.
He even regretted coming to hug Kitashirakawa's thick legs at this time. Otherwise, although he was not promoted to major general at this time, he could at least continue to command the troops in battle.
But what now? There was no one around him, and he was left alone, hiding in an unknown garden surrounded by enemies.
He didn't know how long he could hide in this place, but it was obviously unwise to go out now.
He could hear that there should be people surrounding the courtyard at this time. But for some reason, no one has climbed over the wall.
When he was young, he heard a conversation between two people. One of them wanted to climb over the wall, but the other stopped him and said, this courtyard belongs to the Chen family. The old man of the Chen family lives here. Who dares to go in and search?
Hearing this, Momotaro let out a sigh of relief. He was even somewhat glad that he had learned Chinese, otherwise even if he heard what the other party said at this time, he might not know what the other party said.
"Chen family?"
Momotaro repeated that although he didn't know how powerful the Chen family was, it was obvious that no one from outside could get in for the time being.
This made Momotaro see hope of survival, and he had to find a place to hide himself.
He thought he didn't have this time before, but now he does. He had to struggle, after all, no one in this world wanted to die.
Just when he was about to move, seven or eight people entered the back garden with flashlights and lanterns.
One of them said: "Brothers, please take a good look. Don't let any bad guys enter the garden. The master said, it's not peaceful these days! Spies are being caught everywhere. Don't come into our yard again. I understand." No?"
"yes!"
Several people responded and then split up to search everywhere!
