Chapter 391: The Weak Scholar County Magistrate (2)

If you want the Chinese people not to be killed by the little devils, and the property is not plundered, you can only pick up the gun and fight the little devils to the end, as long as the Chinese descendants join together to resist the war, you will definitely be able to defeat the little devils.

When Matsumoto saw that he had aroused the anger of the public, he jumped onto a big rock, waved the gun in his hand, and shouted to the angry villagers: "Don't look for your own death, these rioters who were shot and killed by the Imperial Army just now are opposing and sabotaging the Imperial Japanese Army, and establishing the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Circle in Laiyang City, you should not be deceived by the Eight Roads of the Earth, only the Imperial Japanese Army can protect you, as long as you ......." ”

"Bastard, you shot and killed my Chinese people, is this your great East Asian co-prosperity?"

"You say you want to protect us, the ghost of the deceitful nun mother, you see, so many villagers have fallen under your muzzle bayonets, this is your protection? Bastard bastards, get out of the county, we don't want you to be protected like this. ”

The villagers complained angrily, completely angering the supreme commander of the devils in Laiyang City, and he raised his gun in anger.

Squadron Leader Matsumoto, the supreme commander of the Japanese army in this county, brandished his pistol and shouted at the angry crowd in front of him: "Yaga, you guys quickly stand back, take a step forward, and you will all die." ”

He shouted and pulled the trigger, and a gunshot rang out, and the little devil rushed to the resisting populace with his rifle on his bayonet as if he had heard the order to attack.

At this tense moment, which was about to cause a bigger bloody case, a voice sounded: "Folks, don't be impulsive first, let me negotiate with the Japanese commander stationed in Laiyang City, I don't have a gun or a big knife, I can't lead you to charge, but I don't want to see you fall in a pool of blood." ”

The shouter walked out of the crowd, pushed away the little devil's bayonet, walked up to Matsumoto, and said in a low tone, but with confidence: "Squadron Leader Matsumoto, you keep saying that you want to establish the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Circle and protect my people, but you actually shot so many of my people under your guns today, I just want to ask you, did you get the order of General Hoshino, the commander of the 13th Brigade, for this massacre of innocent people?" ”

Matsumoto didn't want to disrupt the order of the county, nor did he want to anger everyone, he just wanted to teach a lesson, but he didn't expect Hideshige Oshima to take this opportunity to take crazy revenge to alleviate the shame of his defeat and cause such a big bloodshed.

He was also afraid that once the people of the whole city went on strike, boycotted the city, and boycotted classes, it would definitely cause a big sensation, and once the peak was investigated, it would be reported in the newspapers again, and the influence of the Imperial Japanese Army in Jiaodong would be affected, and he, the supreme commander of the county, would not end well at that time, and he might be dismissed and sent back to China in order to quell the bloodshed.

When Matsumoto was in a dilemma when he had nothing to do and could not carry out greater bloody suppression, he saw that the magistrate of Laiyang County, who was usually weak and did not care about the world, dared to boldly come out and argue with him, which just gave him a step.

He jumped off the boulder, looked at the county magistrate and said: "County Magistrate Zhao, you are responsible for controlling the people in the county seat, you are responsible as the county magistrate, and if I pursue the words you just said, I will kill you." ”

"Squadron Leader Matsumoto, I, the county magistrate, was originally a teacher who taught and educated people in Yantai City, and it was General Hoshino, the commander of your brigade, who used both soft and hard measures to force me out of school and serve as the magistrate of Laiyang County, the murder that happened today is also a tragedy, I will submit my resignation to General Hoshino, and take the initiative to resign, and no longer serve as the county magistrate of this bloody county, what do you think?"

In Matsumoto's eyes, County Magistrate Zhao is a weak county magistrate who doesn't care about idle things and is obedient, but he didn't expect that he would stand up so unafraid of death today.

He didn't expect that County Magistrate Zhao said these words very bloodily today, which greatly surprised Matsumoto. Not only did he frown, but he suddenly grabbed County Magistrate Zhao's collar and asked, "County Magistrate Zhao, you were attacked by Tuba Road in the county seat, and Tuba Road arrested you, did you fornicate with Tuba Road?" Tell me quickly. ”

When he saw that the Eighth Route Army examined the captured county government officials at different levels, suppressed the most heinous murders on the spot, and gave a warning to the people who usually do evil fish and flesh, and there were no murders.

He learned from it, and felt that he was a scholar, but he was used by the little devil to act as the county magistrate of the puppet regime, and he was going to take advantage of the Eighth Route Army to capture the county seat, abandon this betrayal of his ancestors, secretly sneak back to Yantai City, reunite with his family, and no longer do this conscience-losing thing, but under the persuasion of Lei Jian, he finally stayed.

Lei Jian said to County Magistrate Zhao: "I know that you are an upright, knowledgeable, educated, and unconscientious Chinese citizen, you are the county magistrate in Laiyang City, you have not done anything to fish and flesh the people, you have done too many bad things with the little devils, and sometimes you can help the villagers, on behalf of the Eighth Route Army, I hope you can continue to stay in office." ”

"Don't do it, this dog official who lost his head and was scolded by 10,000 people, I won't do it."

Lei Jian continued to do his work: "County Magistrate Zhao, if you leave this position, the Japanese side will send another county magistrate, once a traitor who is determined to follow the little devil to do bad things comes, the people of Laiyang City will be even worse, and life will be even more difficult, do you think this is the reason?" ”

"Commander Lei of the Eighth Route Army, although I, Zhao, am a scholar and can't go to the battlefield with a gun to kill little devils, but I still know in my bones that I am a descendant of China, and I really don't want to do it anymore."

"County Magistrate Zhao, I'll tell you the truth, you said that the Eighth Route Army captured Laiyang County, eliminated the enemy puppet army defending the city, and captured the devil's weapons, ammunition and food, and even the materials of the Japanese army's military depot and took them out of the city, the little devil returned to the city, and he will definitely be angry and sprinkle his anger on the people of the county.

Lei Jian saw that County Magistrate Zhao was no longer talking, he struck while the iron was hot and said: "County Magistrate Zhao, you stay and continue to be your pseudo county magistrate, but at the critical moment when the people's life and death are at stake, you have to come forward to rescue them, I can also tell you the truth, what you do, the Eighth Route Army and the anti-Japanese underground organizations in the city, will be in your eyes, for your safety, I will truthfully report to the higher departments of the Eighth Route Army, and record your performance and the situation of being in the enemy camp and working for the Eighth Route Army, and defeat the little devil in a few years." , you are also a meritorious person, so do you still want to leave the county? ”

Seeing that Lei Jian had said so much, County Magistrate Zhao nodded in agreement: "Commander Lei, can you really represent your organization?" If you can prove it to me, I will continue to work for this infamous county magistrate, but I must not leak the news, once the devil knows that I have fornicated eight ways, my head will not be saved. ”

"Please rest assured, I promise you now on behalf of the Eighth Route Army that I will keep your secrets and not ask any individuals and organizations to contact you, and when the time is ripe, do you say it's okay County Magistrate Zhao." The more Lei Jian spoke, the more sincere he became, and County Magistrate Zhao listened to it with much brighter.

At this time, County Magistrate Zhao saw that the little devil had just created a massacre, and was about to carry out an even more cruel and bloody bloody case, and he, a cultural person who still had a national spirit and a backbone that had not yet bent down, remembered once again what Lei Jianlin said when he left, "County Magistrate Zhao, when the lives of the people under your rule are in danger, you must straighten your waist and rescue them while protecting yourself."

County Magistrate Zhao saw that the atrocities of the devils continued to escalate, he could no longer wait, and more people would die if he waited, he walked out bravely, and at this time Matsumoto grabbed his collar and forced him to ask him if he had fornicated with the Eight Roads, he said firmly: "Captain Matsumoto, it is useless for me to say anything in front of you, if you think that I have fornicated with the Eight Roads, then you will kill me." ”

He paused to look at Matsumoto and said again: "If Squadron Leader Matsumoto thinks that I, as the head of a prefecture, have a way to live for my people, and for you to be able to explain it to General Hoshino, and even more so about the 'Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere' that you are talking about, think about it." If you think that I am right to say that I should not continue to shoot the innocent people in the city, then you can let these people go and promise not to kill them again, and I would rather die at your gunpoint, or I can send me to Hoshino Shogun for more severe scrutiny. ”

"Hahaha, County Magistrate Zhao, I'm playing a little joke with you, don't take your heart to heart, you are the county magistrate of Laiyang City, and mine is the supreme commander of the Japanese army stationed in the county, the task of the two of us is to strengthen the security and vigilance of the county, to prevent a sneak attack on Tuba Road, to rectify the order in the city, and to eliminate the anti-Japanese organizations and anti-Japanese elements hidden in the county town Tuba Road, in order to achieve this goal, the two of us are inseparable."

Matsumoto said, smoothing the collar of the clothes of County Magistrate Zhao, who was scratched by him, and pretending to be affectionate: "County Magistrate Zhao, what do you want to do with the corpses of these anti-Japanese elements?" ”
