Chapter 9: The Devil Asks for His Life?

The headquarters of the Japanese army in Xianxian County, the supreme commander of the Japanese army in Xianxian County, Kato Ming Shaozuo, suddenly woke up in his sleep, snorting and panting, after a while, the old devil calmed down, reached out and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and said casually: "It turned out to be just a nightmare!" ”

"Knock knock~!" At this moment, there was a sharp knock on the door outside, Kato Shaozo frowned slightly, walked to the door with some reluctance, opened the door, and saw a ghost officer waiting respectfully outside the door.

Kato Shaosa opened his mouth and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

The devil officer hurriedly replied: "Report to Your Excellency Shaozuo, I just received news from the Guozhuang stronghold, the direction of the Huaizhen stronghold is in flames, and the Huaizhen stronghold has lost contact, I'm afraid something will happen." ”

"Nani?" Hearing this, Kato Shaozuo's face changed greatly, and he muttered for a while, and then ordered: "Immediately order the Guozhuang stronghold and the Hancun stronghold to send half of their troops to support the Huaizhen stronghold as soon as possible." In addition, he ordered the second squadron in the city to assemble immediately and support Huaizhen with me. ”

"Hello!" The devil officer hurriedly responded respectfully, turned around and hurried to deliver the order.

"How is that possible? The main force of the nearby Eighth Route Army has been defeated, and the commanders of their military divisions have all been killed by the imperial army, and their heads are still hanging on the head of Hejian City! Kato Shaozo was puzzled, but he was also sure that something must have happened to the Huaizhen stronghold, although he didn't want to believe this fact in his heart, but he had to believe it. Because it rained heavily last night, how could there be a fire at this time, and how could there be such a big fire? Coupled with the fact that the Huaizhen stronghold has lost contact, this is even more revealing.

Therefore, the old devil did not dare to slack off, hurriedly dressed up, and left the residence in a hurry, about five minutes later, Kato Shaozo personally led a squadron of little devils to leave the station, and hurried towards the east city gate, and hurried to the Huaizhen stronghold.

About an hour later, Kato Shaosa and the others were not far from Huaizhen, when a three-wheeled motorcycle came quickly from the direction of Huaizhen, and there were three little devils sitting in the car.

A little devil sitting in the side bucket jumped directly from the car and ran quickly to the truck that Kato Shaozo was riding, the truck slowly stopped on the side of the road, and Kato Shaoza, who was sitting in the passenger seat, stuck his head out of the window and asked loudly: "How is the situation in Huaizhen?" ”

The little devil ran to him, lowered his head and said respectfully: "Report to Your Excellency Shaozuo, the more than 100 Imperial Army warriors and more than 100 Imperial Alliance soldiers in the Huaizhen stronghold are all shattered, and none of them have been spared!" In addition, more than 20 warriors of the Imperial Army and more than 50 soldiers of the Imperial Association sent from the Guozhuang stronghold to support the Huaizhen stronghold were also lost. ”

"Nani? What the hell is going on? Kato Shaosa's eyes were about to pop out, and he shouted loudly at the top of his voice.

"Report to Your Excellency Shaozuo, at present, the imperial army of the Hancun stronghold has rushed to the Huaizhen stronghold, and is investigating the scene and treating several wounded soldiers in the Guozhuang stronghold. As for how the Huaizhen stronghold was attacked, it is unclear. However, not long ago, the imperial army and the imperial army of Guozhuang's stronghold were ordered to rush to the Huaizhen stronghold, when the battle was over, they entered the stronghold, and at this moment there was a sudden explosion, the ammunition depot in the stronghold was detonated, and a large number of explosives were also buried in the two turrets, all of which were blown up, and the imperial army that entered the stronghold was caught off guard, and almost all the jade was shattered. The little devil cautiously reported.

"Bagaya Road~!" Kato Shaozo couldn't help but scold angrily, and then gritted his teeth and shouted: "Speed up and rush to the Huaizhen stronghold as soon as possible." ”

When Kato Shaozo came to the Huaizhen stronghold, the Huaizhen stronghold at this time had almost become a ruin, the two towering turrets had all collapsed, the barracks were all burned down, and the storehouse was blown up beyond recognition.

"Didn't there be a living mouth left in the Huaizhen stronghold? Is it clear after investigation? Who exactly attacked the Huaizhen stronghold? Kato asked angrily.

"Report to Your Excellency Shaozuo, all the people in the Huaizhen stronghold are all broken. After investigating the scene, it was found that the enemy should have sneaked in, attacked the two turrets, and then set fire to the barracks, and the soldiers in the barracks woke up and rushed out, and then were fired by machine guns, either burned to death or killed. As for who exactly the enemy who attacked the stronghold was, it is not clear, but it should not be the Eighth Route Army. A devil officer next to him hurriedly replied.

"Oh?" Kato Shaozo raised his eyebrows, turned to look at the devil officer, and asked, "How do you know that it wasn't the Eighth Route Army?" ”

The devil officer hurriedly said: "First, the main force of the Eighth Route Army has been evacuated, and there is no main force of the Eighth Route Army in the vicinity. Second, almost all the people in the Huaizhen stronghold were killed directly, but Lieutenant Yamada Jiro was tortured to death, which was simply miserable, and he didn't think it was like the style of the Eighth Route Army. ”

"This bastard, who was touched into the turret, slept like a dead pig one by one, is really damned. I'd like to see how miserable he died. Kato Shaozo gritted his teeth and scolded.

"Your Excellency Shaozuo, Yamada-kun's body is over there, but I think it's better for Your Excellency not to look at it." The devil officer said cautiously.

"Hmph~!" Kato Shaosa snorted coldly, strode over, waved his hand and said, "Lift the cloth." ”

"Hello!" The little devil next to him hurriedly answered, and reached out to lift the white cloth covering Yamada Jiro's body.

When Kato Shaosa saw Yamada Jiro's body, he couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise, only to see that the skin and flesh on Yamada Jiro's two arms and chest were almost all gone, revealing the white bones of Yamada. The mouth is also a blur of flesh and blood, and most importantly, the skull of the head has also been cut off, and the brain is charred and black.

The devil officer next to him hurriedly explained: "Your Excellency Shaozuo, when we came, Yamada-kun knelt on the ground, and his hands were nailed to the gate with bayonets, not only the flesh on his arms and chest was gone, but even the skull was cut off with a knife, and the murderer actually poured boiling oil into Yamada-kun's head, and Yamada-kun also died because of it. ”

Kato Shaoza couldn't help but feel creepy when he heard this, and couldn't help but remember that he had heard someone mention that there seems to be a dish called eating monkey brains alive in China, which seems to be the way to do it.

Kato Shaozo hurriedly twisted his head to the side, really unwilling to look at it, and then said: "This really doesn't look like the style of the Eighth Route Army, so who do you think the murderer is?" In the entire central Hebei region, except for the Eighth Route Army, there seems to be no powerful anti-Japanese armed forces! ”

The devil officer replied in a low voice: "I just asked the president of the maintenance association of Huaizhen, and according to him, it seems that this is not man-made, but a demon asking for his life!" ”
