Chapter 482: Autumn Harvest and Winter Collection 40
The woman who was thrown at the entrance of the cave was very young. She looked about twenty years old in terms of appearance, but her hands were tied up by Jin Erlang. The woman had short hair and round face, was not tall, and she looked like a female student. Her accent was not a local, and it sounded obviously with traces of southern voice.
The fire illuminated the cave, and the girl saw that there was another person in the cave. Maybe she felt that after the number of people, the vicious Jin Erlang would not take any further action. At this time, she obviously felt a sense of security. The tense expression on her face immediately calmed down the novel chapter.
"Erlang, what's going on? Why did you bring a girl back?" Zhou Yougen asked.
"Lao Zhou, this time I was so unlucky. I didn't get any food. When I returned to the village in the afternoon, I met a traitor. I was afraid that there would be a devil or a second devil in the village, so I came back by myself." Speaking of this, Jin Erlan pointed to the tied woman and said, "But I didn't do anything. I caught a female traitor this time."
"Is she a female traitor?" Zhou Yougen, the monk, was confused and continued to ask.
Jin Erlang replied: "That's not it, she is just a female traitor."
Then the light from the fire, Zhou Yougen looked carefully at the woman brought back by Jin Erlang.
This woman is about ten years old, which means that most female students dress up. She still looks childish and doesn't look like a traitor no matter how she looks.
"She is a traitor? Erlang, you can't make a mistake, right?" Zhou Yougen was very suspicious.
Zhou Yougen settled the girl, then sat by the fire, and said, "She is from Xuanfu class, why not a traitor?"
In order to prove that he was right, Zhou Yougen took out a large stack of slogans and leaflets from his arms and threw them to Zhou Yougen.
Zhou Yougen looked at the flyers carefully at the fire and found that they were really promoting so-called friendship between China and Japan, coexistence and prosperity.
While roasting the fire, Jin Erling was talking about his afternoon trip.
Jin Erlang rode back to the village in the afternoon and went smoothly.
The weather today is very good, and it is clear and the sky is clear. Jin Erling, who is riding on the horse, has a great vision. The afternoon sun is very warm, and there is no wind. The sun shines on people. It has been so warm that he has been hiding in the mountains for so many days. If it weren't for the urgent need for food supply, Jin Erling would have wanted to find a large flat stone to lie on it and bask in the sun to sleep comfortably.
Jin Erlang soon came to the village and rode on the horse from afar. The village seemed very quiet and there was no one moving. However, there was a house with smoke rippling from the roof.
If there is smoke in the village, it means that there must be someone in the village; there is little movement in the village. It means that even if there are people, the number of people is not large.
From Zhou Yougen's mouth, he learned that the main force of the Eighth Route Army had now moved to the north, and he also took the Japanese and puppet troops behind him to the north. Although Zhou Yougen did not talk about the current situation of the Eighth Route Army, Jin Erlang guessed that the Eighth Route Army suffered huge losses this time, and they could only rest and replenish in a short period of time. The possibility of actively launching an attack on the Japanese was equal to zero.
Dawangzhuang and Xiaowangzhuang are in the middle of the enemy-to-we-war zone. Since the Japanese came here, the so-called "suppression combat" and "sweeping operations" have also experienced several times, and there have been many other small-scale harassment. Therefore, the local people are very familiar with the laws of the Japanese.
The Japanese were in full sweep battle every time. In addition, both the Kuomintang and the Communist armies adopted guerrilla warfare tactics. During the combat stage, they often preserve their strength at the beginning to avoid their edge. Therefore, the Japanese relied on their relative superior troops and powerful firepower to be unstoppable.
But the Japanese also have fatal shortcomings. That is, they can attack the rural territory, but they can rarely occupy and completely control it. In addition, the people often flee to avoid wars, and the Japanese army rarely get supplies in the newly occupied areas of the countryside. Without supplies, it is impossible to fight for a long time. In the end, the Japanese who came in a fierce manner often cannot find opponents or receive supplies. They often have to leave these newly occupied territory and eventually return to their solid strongholds in shame.
In view of the characteristics of the Japanese, the people are also used to this kind of life. The people all know that they have compiled some vivid folk songs, such as "The Japanese have a gust of wind, and the Eighth Route Army has flooded the ground", which means that the Japanese have nothing to do when they come. They are like a gust of demonic wind, and although they have some losses, they will quickly shrink back; but the Eighth Route Army is different when they come. The Eighth Route Army is like water flooding the earth, and they will seep in and take root. After a period of time, the power of the Eighth Route Army will not only survive, but will eventually grow and grow.
The Japanese will leave when they come, and Jin Erling firmly believes that. The Japanese have been fighting for so many days, and Jin Erling guessed that they should have gone back long ago. Moreover, the village is currently very quiet, and only a farmhouse is floating out of smoke. It doesn’t look like a large group of Japanese or puppet troops stationed. Therefore, Jin Erling believes that the smoke in the village should be the neighbors who returned to the village early to cook at home.
"I will definitely get the food today." The self-righteous Jin Erling was overjoyed. He whipped the horse's butt, flew four hooves, and rode one by one into Wang Xiaowang Village.
The surroundings were quiet, and the sound of horse hooves like drum beats broke the quiet mountain village. Suddenly, just as Jin Erlang was approaching the village, several people suddenly appeared in the village.
These people are all men. Some of them are wearing Chinese clothes, some are not like uniforms, and military uniforms are not like military clothes. However, there is one thing on these people that is that they all wear Japanese combat hats!
"Is there a Japanese in the village?" Jin Erlang felt a "buzzing" in his head, and his cold sweat came down!
However, Jin Erlang is no longer the chaotic second-rate man now. He is also a person who has experienced big scenes. His initial silence did not make him at a loss.
The war horse under his crotch is worthy of having experienced a rain of bullets. When he saw the crowd suddenly popping out of the village, the war horse immediately stopped. Just as the war horse stopped, Jin Erlang reached out and leaned back, and the rifle on his back was held in his hand. Then, with a "slam" sound, Jin Erlang pushed the bullet and pointed the muzzle at the people at the entrance of the village.
"Jin Erlang is here! Jin Erlang is here!..." Jin Erlang was a little panicked, but he didn't expect that those people were even more panicked than him. After those people saw Jin Erlang riding on the horse, they turned around and ran to the village, and shouted loudly while running.
Soon, a chaos broke out in the village, and there seemed to be many people inside.
Jin Erlang didn't know how many people there were in the village, so he didn't dare to be arrogant anymore, so he turned his horse's head and walked back. However, when he met the people just now, he saw something clearly. That was, there were several people in it with a white red armband on their arms, with the words "Big Japanese Military Propaganda Officer" written on it.
The war horse slowly stopped. It was two or three miles away from the village. Compared with the range of the rifle, such a long distance was relatively safe. Jin Erlang's heart was slightly relieved.
After the Japanese invaded China, they moved south with their military advantages. Although they were unstoppable on the front battlefield, they had no advantages in the vast rural areas. The Japanese occupied a large number of cities and important towns on major transportation routes, but the vast rural areas were still controlled by the armed forces of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party.
The Japanese have never been fools. They know deeply what their shortcomings are. They know that although they can drive away the Chinese team, they cannot occupy and rule the countryside. That is, the people never believe them. In order to compete with the Chinese anti-Japanese forces for the countryside, the Japanese have come up with a solution. That is, to establish institutions and train personnel, so that these people can expand their political influence in the countryside. Establish and stabilize the pseudo-government in the countryside. This institution is the Propaganda and Fu team.
The devils relied on traitors and puppet troops in China, and could only rely on traitors and puppet troops. However, traitors and puppet troops were not reliable, so the devils began to tentatively establish some organizations and forces that could be completely controlled by themselves. So a freak "Public Propaganda and Fu Clan" who was specifically responsible for stabilizing the occupied areas and carrying out political propaganda in the occupied areas came into being.
In the eyes of the Japanese, the Japanese are the most noble, followed by Koreans, Taiwanese, and the so-called Manchus, the lowest-ranking ones are the Chinese. The members of this so-called "propaganda and comfort class" are divided into "ministerial members" and "employees". Japanese are of course employees, and Koreans and Taiwanese also have the opportunity to become employees; but among the Chinese, only a very small number of hard-core traitors can become so-called ministry members.
The squad leader is usually the person in charge of Japanese or Koreans, and Koreans or Taiwanese are the main members, and there are also Northeastern people. Of course, the most members are Chinese. These Chinese are generally educated young people, and most of them are lured into this Japanese and puppet institution in the name of recruitment work.
After Japan has strengthened brainwashing training for a period of time, the members of the Xuanfu team will be assigned to various places. The Xuanfu team will take direct leaders of Japanese security forces in various places. When the Japanese army set out to "strike" and "sweep", the Xuanfu team will follow the Japanese army to do the so-called "propaganda and support" work.
The so-called publicity and support work is actually nothing more than a few aspects.
First, after the Japanese army drove away the local anti-Japanese army, the Xuanfu team immediately looked for traitor agents in the local area, established a "Public Security Maintenance Association", appointed a false maintenance president, and performed administrative management functions.
Second, traitors are used to collect intelligence to prevent anti-Japanese forces from sabotaging activities. Sometimes they temporarily hire gangsters and drug users to spy on military information to collect intelligence.
Third, the training content is to organize villagers, students, and teachers to be trained. The training content is nothing more than beautifying the war of aggression, enslaving education on the Chinese, and instilling pro-Japanese ideas.
It was already far away from the village. Jin Erlang looked back, but he didn't see anyone catching up.
