Chapter 12: The Aftermath of War (40)

The gunfire of the three gates stopped, and the rout of the three gates concentrated at the south gate, and there was no more gunfire at the south gate at this time. On the pontoon bridge, there were many people standing, and by the gradually clear sky, Huang Yingyi counted no less than eighty people.

The three-way siege army also followed to the south gate, and the machine guns were lined up on the south gate wall, and Zhao Shengan and Zhang Shenghu shook hands cordially on the city gate building, like a general division, and looked at Mo Di and Luo Wei on the other side of the river with a smile and scolded.

"Put down your gun." Liu Renkai, who was standing south of the pontoon bridge, shouted in the local dialect, Look at the Peace Founding Army on the pontoon bridge, look at me, I will look at you, and under the leadership of the regiment leader Jiang Qingguo, he put down his gun.

"The officers retreat to the north bank, and the soldiers go to the south bank, don't go wrong, and kill those who go wrong." Liu Ren danced the M712 in his hand, and he was also powerful in civilian clothes.

The captives were quite obedient, Jiang Qingguo took the lead and walked to the south gate on the north bank of the Gao River, followed by about thirteen or fourteen people, and the rest of the people formed a whole team, divided into two lines, holding their heads in their hands, and walked to the south bank. The Peaceful Founding Army is very easy to distinguish, the officers' one-color large-brimmed hats are similar to the Northern Expeditionary Army of that year, and the soldiers are soft-topped cloth hats, which are slightly looser than the Japanese military caps, and they are soft and have no spirit. It was better in battle, because the soldiers were equipped with steel helmets, similar to the wide-brimmed steel helmets of the Guangxi Gui Army, and a multicolored five-pointed star on the steel helmet seemed to be cracked.

The soldiers who walked to the south bank were unarmed and searched one by one, and then returned to the same place with those who had been captured in Chaling and managed them together. The capture of more than a hundred people is a big burden for the guard battalion,

There were 37 of the more than a dozen plainclothes guards of Mo Enemy and Luo Wei's more than a dozen guards who had changed into civilian clothes, and they followed Liu Renkai and Chen Dingyi, who were also dressed in civilian clothes, across the pontoon bridge. After registration, fifteen officers were escorted into the south gate and locked up in the sentry duty room inside the south gate.

At this time, Zhao Sheng'an, Zhang Shenghu and others came down from the south gate tower, walked out of the south gate, packed up the scattered items and guns on the pontoon bridge, and took them to the south bank of the Gao River.

Seeing them, Mo Di asked, "Are there any casualties?" ”

Zhang Shenghu shook his head, Zhang Chongshan also shook his head, only Zhao Shengan smiled and said: "There are no deaths, there are two injuries, it is too dark, one is walking carelessly, and the other is accidentally sliding down the city stairs." Mo Di also smiled.

"Have you counted the enemy's casualties?" Mo Di asked again.

The three of them shook their heads, and Zhang Shenghu said: "If there are no injuries, as long as you see the injured, you will be replaced." If the light is blind, there must be a net. ”

Mo Di nodded and said, "The reconnaissance company worked harder, changed into civilian clothes, and went to patrol the city, and if there were any suspicious people, they were all cleaned up." The assault company and the heavy fire company cleaned up, prepared for breakfast, and left with the prisoners. ”

Not long after, more than a dozen flat-bottomed boats came up from the downstream, and when they arrived at the mouth of the Nanmen River, they were neatly moored in a row, and the passage was paved with boat boards. Chen Dingyi at the south gate ran out to take a look, and beckoned to the south bank of the Gao River, meaning to let the invincibles get on the boat.

The ships were not large, at most forty people, the heavy fire company occupied three, and the situation of the assault company was more complicated, with twenty assault company soldiers in each boat carrying twenty prisoners, one in charge of one, and six ships were solidly put into practice. Mo Enemy Luo Wei Huang Yingyi sat in a boat with the artillery company and the cannon platoon.

The port of the boat, which was full of people, immediately turned around and left quickly in the morning light. The remaining five ships, under the order of Chen Dingyi, left the dock and anchored not far away.

The river breeze blew, Luo Wei hugged his clothes and said, "Boss, those who are officials, are they really not left?" ”

Mo Di nodded and said: "Special treatment under special circumstances, I also know that Jiang Qingguo does not have too many bad deeds, but if he does not die, Liu Jin will not be the boss of Gaohebu, so he has to wronged him." ”

Huang Yingyi smiled and said, "How could the boss think of this trick of blame? also asked Liu Renkai to hold a public trial. Only then did I know the purpose of the boss asking Liu Ren to open them to Gaohebu, to conduct a public trial, they are insiders, and our guard battalion does not have this kind of talent. I think back then, my second brother and their hometown often engaged in activities to fight local tyrants and divide the land, and often held public trials, but at that time I was still young, and I couldn't even understand the excitement. Hehe, I really want to stay in Gaohebu to watch this excitement. ”

Shi Zhong smiled and said to Huang Yingyi: "If you want to see the excitement, say it earlier, anyway, there are still plainclothes left from Yuexi brought by Tuanzao." Would you like to let the boat dock now and let you go? ”

Huang Yingyi sighed and said, "Forget it, I've walked a mile or two, and I'm tired of walking back." ”

The big drying field outside the Gaohebu bazaar, arranged * solemn, eight dressed in civilian clothes, holding three or eight big covers of the guys on both sides, among them there is a big photo wall, on which is "the world for the public" four big characters, there are two people are sticking something on the big photo wall, after pasting it is clear that it is the two big characters of the public trial, blocking the middle two words of "the world is for the public", looking at the past from a distance, it has become the words "the public trial of the heavens". In front of the wall are the prisoners standing in two rows, and the one in the middle who is not wearing a hat is Jiang Qingguo, the head of the Gaohebu garrison.

In Gaohebu, a lively gong sounded, and with the sound of the gong, it was a hoarse voice: "Go to the big sunyard to watch the public trial of the traitor!" I went to the big sunyard to watch the public trial of the traitor! ”

Zhang Jinlu in the Houde Building was happy when he heard it, he knew that the guard battalion was going to fight Gaohebu, but he didn't know that there was this one! Hurriedly helped Zhang Houde out of the door. On the street, there are a lot of people gathered, and everyone is talking about it, since Tang Xingsan made a revolution here a few years ago, it has rarely been seen that there is a public trial. Back then, Tang tried three dozen local tyrants to divide the land, and the public trial of local tyrants and inferior gentry at two ends in three days, that scene is still quite nostalgic. Whenever there is a public trial, people from all over the country will flock to Gaohebu to make revolutionaries, sell snacks, visit relatives, and watch the excitement, just like rushing to a big market.

"Who is going to be tried this time?" Asking each other, curious, hugging, and walking towards the big drying field.

Seeing that there were a lot of people coming, Liu Renkai nodded and said, "Let's start." ”

I saw a few plainclothes people walk up to the captives standing in the middle, take off the hats on the heads of the captives who are still wearing hats, and each of them put on a high hat made of white paper, on which two words are clearly written: "traitor". Jiang Qingguo thought that the soldier could be killed but not insulted, and wanted to argue two sentences, but when he saw these two words, he couldn't say anything anymore.

After the three gongs sounded, the discussion gradually quieted down, and I saw Liu Renkai walk to the front and say loudly: "Fellow villagers, we are the anti-Japanese guerrillas of Goutouling, fighting devils and eliminating traitors, and we are well-known heroes and heroes......

"Wow! The heroes of Kotouling! The audience was in an uproar.

"Where is Doghead Ridge?" Someone asked.

"Don't ask, the dog head ridge is in the dog head ridge, and if the good man is not satisfied, he will cut off your dog head." Someone answered.

Liu Renkai pointed to the fifteen captives and continued: "These traitors, good people don't do it, they make dogs for the Japanese, and they run to Gaohebu to bully the Chinese. ”

"Damn, damn!" The shouting was like thunder. For the profession of puppet army, not too many people will agree.

After a while, a thin voice came out: "Jiang Tuanzuo didn't bully the people of Gaohebu, they didn't grab grain, they still bought grain, and the price they gave was not low." ”

"Yes, yes! This time, our family sold some food and made a lot of money. Someone agreed.

Liu Renkai heard the following discussion and said: "Death should be died for grabbing grain, and death should be for buying grain, who let them be traitors." What is a traitor, that is, a traitor who comes out of our Han people, is a traitor. The Japanese fought China, if there were no traitors, little Japan would have been able to fight into China, they not only led the way to collect grain, but also helped the Japanese to fight Chinese and kill Chinese......"

"I haven't killed Chinese." Jiang Qingguo twisted his neck and protested.

Liu Ren opened his eyes and shouted: "You didn't kill with your own hands, you dare to say that your subordinates have not killed Chinese?" ”

Jiang Qingguo was speechless.

"If you die without repentance, if you die without confessing your sins, the most reactionary thing is a big traitor and a big lackey like you." Liu Renkai kicked Jiang Qingguo out of the queue with a kick.

At this time, Chen Dingyi took the lead in shouting the slogan: "Kill the big traitor." ”

Watching the excitement, he was not afraid of things, and shouted: "Kill the big traitor." ”

Chen Ding repeatedly shouted: "Shoot the big lackey." ”

Those who watched the excitement also shouted: "Shoot the big lackey." ”

Liu Renkai didn't say a word, and shouted: "Since everyone has unanimously decided to shoot this big traitor, then I am not polite, come here, on behalf of the people of Gaohebu, execute the traitor and traitor Jiang Qingguo, and execute it immediately." ”

I saw two plainclothes people come out, one on each side, and dragged Jiang Qingguo out, and dragged it not far away, and the M712 Mauser gun was two shots. Jiang Qingguo kept shouting: "There is no excuse for the crime you want to add, you robbers, bandits, and you ...... careless of human life." The gun rang out and shouted twice, and then there was no sound.

Seeing Jiang Qingguo conferring the head, the two rows of prisoners knelt down with a brush, and several of them urinated directly, and their crotches were wet.

Seeing that he shouted twice, he really killed someone, and he was a little frightened, and he didn't dare to make a sound again. Zhang Cripple knew that he should speak by himself at this time, and walked out of the crowd with the help of Zhang Jinlu, stood in front, and said to Liu Renkai: "Boss, king, chief, there is a way that is the first evil, and the crime is coordinated, Jiang Qingguo's crime deserves death, and although the rest of the people are guilty, their crimes will not lead to death." Since the traitor Jiang has been awarded the head, he also asks the net to open up and no longer connect with the rest. ”

Only the two rows of captives interceded for them, and they also kowtowed to beg for mercy.

Liu Renkai thought for a while and said: "Since there are village elders pleading, it's not good for me not to give face, but the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime is unforgivable, and people come." Each of them was given twenty lashes as a sign of respect. ”

Zhang Shenghu responded, took a dozen people, pressed the captive down, took off his pants, exposed his bare ass, and pumped it up vigorously with his belt. When Zhang Jinlu saw Zhang Shenghu in civilian clothes, he immediately understood the purpose of this public trial, which was not to let people know that it was the Ye Bu Regiment that attacked Gaohebu, so he also shouted: "The heroes are merciful, don't hurt internally." ”

The crackling whip made the crowd of onlookers excited, the white light of the buttocks, the red whip marks, the screams of death, and the counting of the voices in unison, I haven't seen this kind of scene for a long time! After the belt was finished, Liu Renkai wanted to say something more, but he saw a plainclothes man running over in a hurry and said, "The big boss, Liu Jin of the chessboard has called, and the striker has arrived at the horse temple." ”

Liu Renkai pointed at Zhang Cripple and said: "These people are saved by you, if they dare to be traitors again, you are the only one who asks." ”

Throwing down a few glossy words, he and Zhang Shenghu withdrew from the south gate with people, and hurriedly got on the boat and left.
