Chapter 899: Reign of Darkness
A jumble of dilapidated shacks was erected in the leeward low-lying flanks of the devils' positions, and these huts made of wood and artemisia grass and reed poles leaked everywhere, but they were the places where the young and strong slept at night.
Driven here by the devil's bayonet from the warmth of their homes, the young men not only did not have enough to eat, but also had to complete heavy hard labor tasks, sleeping in such shacks, and the cold wind poured into the cracks made them often wake up in the middle of the night.
But for these defenseless people, what can be done, although China is not dead now, and the squadron is still resisting, but for them living in the occupied area, it seems that there is no difference between them and the slaves who died in the country.
The bayonet is in the hands of the little devils, and important materials such as food and salt are also in the hands of the little devils, and the devils have to work if they ask them to work, and they have to pay food if they are asked to pay food, and once they resist, there is only death.
Many of the villages that resisted were slaughtered, not only were houses set on fire, but not only did the men, women and children survive.
And these surviving villages and people, under the ferocity of the devils, live on thin ice all day long, praying for peace and for being alive.
In order to live, there are even times when they hate the guerrillas, thinking that if it were not for the guerrillas' attacks everywhere that provoked the little devils, the little devils would not be angry with them and make them fearful.
It is a pity that even if the guerrillas were wiped out by the devils, their lives were not much better, but under the pressure of the maintenance association and the plainclothes team, the situation became more and more difficult day by day.
Most of the people living in the occupied areas now live tremblingly and carefully, their hearts are like those gray skies, only the darkness of not seeing the sun, and they don't know when such a day will be a head.
In the past, they scolded those Chinese ** people who only knew how to oppress the people and eat white food, but now the ** team has disappeared for a long time, and the guerrillas have disappeared, as if they have disappeared, and they have begun to miss it.
Every time they hear the news of the squadron and the guerrillas, they always feel sincerely excited, after all, it is the Chinese army, they are Chinese.
They are now also looking forward to the squadron being able to fight back and regain the fallen territory, but every time the news comes is the news of the defeat of the squadron and the victory of the devils.
The devils will block the news of their defeat in the occupied area, and they will only spread the news of the failure of the squadron, wanting to make the people in the occupied area completely dead, let them know that the squadron is no longer able to counterattack, and accept their rule with peace of mind.
In fact, this is indeed the case, in the era of backward means of communication, as soon as the little devils blocked the news, the people in the occupied areas were really blinded, and many people even thought that the country was lost.
Even many people who had the will to resist stopped resisting, because the country was dead, and the resistance of one or two people could not change anything.
And this time, the first guerrilla force in the Sulu Theater led by General Ma Yuren unexpectedly attacked the city of Gaoyou, which really inspired the people of Gaoyou City.
It's like being in the dark for a long time and suddenly seeing the dawn of hope, although there are still those devils in the city, but the people in the secret are excited.
There were even many people who sewed simple blue sky and white sun flags overnight, ready to hang them up when the squadron entered the city to celebrate the victory.
It is a pity that the first guerrilla troops fought a bloody battle with the devils outside the city for more than a week, and despite the ardent expectations of the people in the city, they never entered the city.
Later, the sound of gunfire and artillery suddenly weakened, and soon news came that the guerrilla troops had been strangled by the devils and the puppet army, and had been completely defeated, and were fleeing in all directions.
The people in Gaoyou City fell from the excited mountain to the trough of disappointment, and the huge mood gap made it difficult for them to accept, and many people cried and quietly burned the blue sky and white sun flag that they had secretly sewn.
The devil was victorious, and retreated to the city to rest, and the little devils who showed off their might began to move around the restaurants and green buildings again, and they drank heavily and excitedly announced their victory.
But the smell of gunsmoke in the entire Gaoyou City has not yet dissipated, and the sky over the entire city is still shrouded in dark black smoke, although the war has not caused much damage to the city, but the city is dead.
Hundreds of people in Gaoyou City were weeping in their hearts, and when they were taken to the battlefield outside the city to collect and bury their bodies by the people of the maintenance association, their hearts were weeping when they saw the Chinese officers and soldiers who had been blown to pieces.
The guerrillas were defeated by the devils, Gaoyou City was still in the hands of the little devils, and the hopes of all the people were shattered like a bubble, and they had to continue to live under the cruel and dark rule, and this uncomfortable feeling was known only to them.
The city was dead, and most of the people were silent and uncomfortable, except for the traitors who sang the praises of the devils.
Instead of the festive atmosphere of a victorious battle, the whole city fell into silence, like a ruined dead city.
The situation outside the city was not much better, and the young men who repaired the fortifications and dug the trenches for the devils were equally uncomfortable, especially the corpses buried by the guerrilla officers and soldiers, which filled their faces with sadness.
The devils defeated the attacking guerrillas in Gaoyou City, and they were victorious, and the victory was followed by a bloody slaughter.
In addition to the captured guerrilla wounded, the targets of the devil's killing were many civilians in the city.
Many Gaoyou people thought that the squadron would eliminate the devils and recover Gaoyou City, and they were very excited to prepare for their troops to enter the city.
It's a pity that the guerrilla troops failed, and under the tips of the traitors and plainclothes teams, the puppet military police in the city were dispatched everywhere and arrested a large number of civilians who supported the squadron.
Because of their excitement, these people inadvertently exposed their hidden patriotic thoughts, expressed their dissatisfaction and disgust with the little devils, which brought disaster to them.
In the eyes of the little devils, these people who tried to welcome the guerrillas into the city were not good citizens, they were all saboteurs, and maybe even the guerrillas' internal response, so they must be severely punished.
The fate of these captured civilians was even more miserable than that of the captured guerrilla officers and soldiers, and the devils would kill the guerrillas in public when they caught them.
But for the captured people, the little devil did not kill them, but hoped to achieve the effect of knocking the mountain and shaking the tiger, but slowly tortured them.
At the north and south gates of Gaoyou, a large wooden stake was erected, and the people who were tortured and tortured to the point of being covered in blood were nailed to the wooden stake.
The nails connected their bodies to the stakes, and they were exposed to the cold wind, and many were dead, but others were alive rather than dead.
The little devil just hopes to use such brutal means to deter the people who are still in China, telling them that if anyone resists, this will be the end.
All the people of Gaoyou City were immersed in great grief, and they could only watch their compatriots slowly bleed to death on the stakes, slowly starving to death, but they did not dare to come forward to save them.
Because if anyone comes close, the devil will arrest them, convict them as accomplices, and then torture them in the same way, and the devil wants to stand up.
