The remnant sun is like blood, submerged in the river, on the river bank opposite Meizizhou, in the cold wind of the winter evening, there is a killing atmosphere.

Sangou was busy cleaning up the battlefield with everyone, and the entire army of the devil cavalry squad was wiped out, which did not bring much joy to Sangou, but was a little sad.

Now the top priority is to deal with the battlefield as soon as possible, preferably without leaving any traces, but it is very difficult, although everything on the devil's body that can prove his identity is stripped away, but the blood stains on the ground are difficult to deal with.

And these horses, Radish said to throw all the dead horses into the river mud, anyway, the horse meat is very unpalatable, this said that it is unpalatable, but immediately reminded the three dogs.

As long as there is time, it is better to throw the devils into the mud and bury them, and collect those dead horses and use them as food, because Dakui said that on Meizizhou, there are hundreds of villagers on it, and he ventured back to Yan Village this time to find food.

Now the three dogs, the twenty or so people, also have to go to Meizizhou, if there is a lack of food, it is difficult to get a foothold, so, the source of the stream, these dead horses, can still be eaten, although it is difficult to eat, it is better than not having to eat.

It also happened that the people who called Dakui rowed five or six boats from Meizizhou, and pulled them with people with grain and dead horses, and pulled them to Meizizhou.

Although Meizizhou is the island in the heart of the river, there are also many swamps, the water level in the island is relatively low, and the river water enters, dividing Meizizhou into very large plots, some are swamps, and some are a little higher, which are villages.

The reeds on the island were also very lush, almost everywhere, and the boat carried everyone and the grain and dead horses, twisting and turning, like water and Liangshan, and finally reached a small village on Meizizhou.

Said to be a village, that is, dozens of houses, and some thatched houses, Da Kui made some introductions to everyone, and the three dogs had already changed their clothes on the boat, and they could finally wear the clothes of the national army, so the people on the island were not frightened.

Otherwise, Da Kui led a group of people wearing devil uniforms to come, and it is estimated that according to the fierce fishermen here, it is estimated that there would have been a fight a long time ago.

Seeing that it was the national army, the fishermen and refugees on the island were very surprised, when is it now, and it is really rare for so many national troops to escape from the city of Nanjing, but these are heroes and are treated very politely.

Huang Jingxiang, the fisherman boss on the island, on behalf of nearly 100 brothers, expressed his admiration and welcome to Sangou, who also said that they were only temporarily hiding, and after a few days, they would return to the original army.

Because a lot of food was pulled over, everyone had a good meal in the evening, which could be regarded as welcoming the arrival of the heroes of the Anti-Japanese War, Sangou asked Yang Chengzu and other experienced people to help deal with those dead horses, and when the temperature was low in winter, they were decomposed and cooked in a large pot with salt, and left to dry.

……

There are two small units missing in a row on the west side of Nanjing, and the Japanese commander in charge of this side, Araki Daisatou, is all big, when is it, and now this side is the world of the Japanese army.

Although these two troops are not many in number, they are all veterans with good quality, especially the cavalry, but the cavalry elite of the imperial army, how can it be said that it is gone.

No, Araki Osa gave a death order, we must find these two troops, we must see people alive and dead to see corpses, and we must find them as soon as possible, now there are a lot of no man's land here, if you don't act quickly, it is estimated that it will be difficult to find.

This is difficult to find, Araki Osa did not say it explicitly, in fact, everyone knows that in such a war years, although it is normal for troops to go missing for a day or two, it is rare for all of them to come back alive.

In a no-man's land, if a missing unit is attacked, it is easy to dispose of it and bury it after death, because there are almost no eyewitnesses, so it is very difficult to search.

And if you don't search as soon as possible, even in winter, the body will decompose within a few days, and once it decomposes to a certain extent, it will be difficult to identify.

Araki Daisa sent out more than a dozen small search teams, pulling nets back and forth in this area, conducting a carpet search, in order to prevent any more small groups of people from getting lost and missing, the distance between the various units was well maintained, and they could see and support each other.

After searching for several days, there was not even a single figure, and the local people in China were even more inhabited, so it was said that the infantry patrol was difficult to find, but the cavalry detachment, the target was very large, and it was difficult to find it.

This is strange, the Japanese army had to gradually search the river and the river from the land, there are only some floating corpses on the riverside, but it is not certain that they are Japanese soldiers, because most of the floating corpses are naked except for the clothes of the Chinese people, and it is impossible to see which corpses are Japanese soldiers.

It is impossible to search on the river, even if there are corpses of Japanese soldiers, it is estimated that they have been washed away by the river, but Jiangxin Island and the reeds by the river, there is a possibility that there are floating corpses blocked inside.

After so many days, the devil search team has lost confidence and hope in finding the living, and now it is just to complete the task of the superiors, hoping to find the corpses to cope with the order, even if it is to find one or two corpses.

But now I couldn't find even one of them, and I couldn't deal with them, so I had to continue to search, and finally reluctantly found these reeds.

The morale of the Japanese soldiers is generally somewhat depressed, from the ecstasy of capturing the capital of China at the beginning, to now slowly fading.

Originally, if Nanjing was captured, the government of China would surrender, and everyone would be able to return to China, but now, China has not surrendered for a long time, and it is still resisting, and it is basically hopeless for everyone to return home and go home, so that these soldiers, who are extremely difficult to be promoted, begin to feel depressed.

The promotion of low-level soldiers in the Japanese army can be said to be the most difficult unit in the world's army, and most of the ordinary soldiers can only be promoted to the rank of captain, and can hardly be promoted to officers like second lieutenants, and can only be veterans until they are discharged.

Most of the officers in the Japanese army graduated from strict military elementary schools, middle schools, and non-commissioned officer schools, and then went to the army to undergo strict enlistment training or combat for a long time before they could become a full-fledged officer.

Of course, in the later stage of the Anti-Japanese War, the Japanese army increased its troops in large numbers, and the supply of military cadets who graduated from military schools was not available, so they were selected from veterans to become supplementary officers or regular officers.

Now, almost all veterans have no possibility of becoming officers, so many soldiers burn and loot everywhere, and if they can't become officials, they make some fortune and send the looted property home, which can be regarded as a kind of material comfort.

The current Japanese army officers are fanatical, because in the process of conquering China, they can make their career brighter, and the greater their military achievements, the faster they will be promoted.

Therefore, these officers did not want the war to end, and hoped to fight all the way, anyway, the Japanese army's battle losses were not high, and there were many people killed in these battles.

It is very likely that the next country will collapse, and at that time, it will be the time to build great military achievements, and the hope of promotion and fortune will come.

Therefore, these officers are constantly urging the soldiers below to carry out the task and thoroughly search for the two missing squads.
